This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Well, to see the bright side: Perhaps this will force developers to at least think about optimizing their software...

Lol, they're gonna make it SaaS and move it to the cloud before that happens.

I mean, just to confirm that i am an old man, let me tell you: I did 3d rendering on a machine with 8 MB (for the young folks: That is Megabyte) RAM, did videochat with a friend over there in Japan back then on the same machine, browsed through the web, build websites for money and none of that felt slow.

I started with 32MB, and I agree (aside from browsing the internet and having to wait for an image to load). I never get tired of linking to this blog post, which captures my feelings perfectly.

This is excellent and captures my feelings exactly as well!
