we can agree to disagree hehe :)

if html was used as html without utf8, or crap like quoted printelble on top
of html or even utf8 it would be perfect, but as all in microdollers no one
care at all

it would have saved energy in in 1970 and forward if that existed at that
time, today i have asus åpn50 with less energy consumes then a old quad
pentium ii :)

yes i still have the quad pentium ii, hehe, 4 cpu do the max on 1536 bogomips,
so equal as a rasberry pie with 1000 times less energi consumes, hmm

i had a G200 aswell, lost if it was pci or isa, it would imho be fast like a
pentium pro raid card in my quard core pentium ii, silly ibm hardware design

 BP>> all well ?

i plan on upgrade from pn50 to pn53 :)

but i am just not have the money yet, pn53 is more energy saving then pn50
