What about "I'd finally get a Pentium-II?!?"
I upgraded my Pentium 75 two years ago to a Pentium 133. I still haven't made it to a Pentium-II yet.
My system is still running, and I can surf the web reasonably well with my 28.8 modem, as long as someone hasn't decided to make life complicated with too much Java or Flash. When I wander into an internet cafe to see what I'm missing, I usually find that the answer seems to be "I'm missing a bit, but not too much".
One day I'll buy a laptop that overpowers my desktop by a factor of a thousand. So far, my cell phone is losing to my computer, but the gap is closing...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
