thats about what i'd like to update to, although ive always had a sweet spot for amd, one of my most favorite workhorse systems ever was an athlon k7x 1.67ghz which literally flew at the time when intel was only learning to rake the sand.
i think in the next few years processors are going to get increasingly draconian, the current branch/generations are likely going to be the "golden age" +-, ymmv, but just my guess.
i wouldn't wish running windows on even someone I didn't like.-
well, where it really shines is if you for some reason need the ability to run a windowed application, and or feel a need to or want to, but with the absolute minimal crap possible to make it run.
you install square tiles and can put them along the edge of the screen in order you choose, set the single or double click to launch, right click them for other options, i think the entire thing weighs in at under 16 megabytes.. it's pretty epically brilliant..
one could think of it as a framebuffer to run xterm inside of, but nearly as responsive as a native TTY VT100 terminal.. no bloat.

as the young hoolingans say, 'fa'sho.' hahahaha. but yeah its rad. i've used it for years. it is the fastest window manager, hands down, minus like that other one that doesn't do much by modern standards, i forget the name, but oh rat something.. super old
