There are subtle things that creep in. For example, the older machines here (this is one of the newer!) aren't quite capable of recording audio from the stereo without skips.

In my case I wanted a bit snappier response when I start up an application, so I went to a newer operating system (generally a move in the wrong direction!) and light-weight windows manager.

For me it's mostly e-mail, browsing, and letters to legislators. And photo and audio processing, and... and... and...

Would be nice if I could get Adobe Flash to run. But not there yet.

Other family members are always finding more things they want the computer to do!
