So I wanted to see how much my computer could handle running today.
\nStarted Notepad++, a few instances of Windows Explorer, iTunes, NetZero, Firefox, Trillian, Windows Media Player, and Photoshop.
\nNo problems at all. This alone would have made my old computer freeze.
\nOpened ~40 (large) files in Photoshop. No problem.
\nPlayed movies in Windows Media Player and music in iTunes. No problem.
\nOpened Word and Excel. No problem.
\nRan WarcraftIII, put on a campaign mode map (with God mode cheat code), and minimized it. No problem.
\nRan Stepmania and minimized it. No problem.
\nPlayed a DVD in Windows Media Center. No problems.
\nOpened up all the other installed programs I had on this computer (Quicktime, Sonic DVD burner, GIF Movie Gear, DivX Player, Symantec, SSH Shell, Adobe Reader). No problems.
\nOpened more files in Photoshop. No problems.<\/p>\n
So yeah, I had every program on this computer running at once and experienced no significant slowdown whatsoever. I love this computer!<\/p>\n
Um… yeah that’s it. I go home in 2 days. Yay!<\/p>\n
No photo today because… um… (insert excuse here)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
