The race for faster processors is still on but the fastest for this year was Intel Pentium III at 850mhz.In 2000 there was another new set of Microsoft this time it was Windows 2000 edition. This was a Y2K compadable program and the big scare was off that all computers were going to crash because they thought they were to old. Also in 2000 they came up with the fastest processor yet. Intel Pentium 4 with 1.4ghz that is 1400mgz. Now they cant go any faster without a new motherboard that can handle the speed and they havent made one yet that can handle anything over that speed. So for now that is the fastest computer you can buy. Well that was all the technological advancements. Now there is new software and hardware. Such as messenger service that you can make your own chat room on with only the people that you want on it and talk to them for free as long as they are online. You can watch DVDs your computer. Download music off of Napster and make your own CDs of whatever you want. Play Chess or video games with people around the world. In this day in age you would be behind in life if you didnt have a computer.Computers are a way life for some people. They work on a computer all day and at night they go home talk to their friends or meet new people. The possibilities are endless. In my opinion they world one day cant go another day without they help of a computer!...
