So what's the average computer used for skinning?
Sunday, August 4, 2002 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
A Pentium 3, 1Ghz machine with a Geforce 2 level card running at 1024x768.
The number of people running at less than 600mhz was roughly the same as the number of people running over 2ghz.
The highpoint was somewhere around 1Ghz with it possibly being slightly higher.
Does anyone have any data on what the typical machine used by the general population is? It would make an interesting comparison.

Counties have GNPs? 
Is that like Lone Star beer being the National Beer of Texas?

Thanks guys, I appreciate the pity post on specs.
Guess I lose. My machine is little.
I was looking for a skin name and searched the name Latitude, and this old post came up on the page. So, only half my fault!
Good news is, It sounds now as if I am the master dredger upper, cool.Thanks again those who shared, the rest of you, see you when you have expired.DT1
