I just completed the migration of my parents computer to a new 3Ghz
clone PC. It is pretty amazing … and it is fast! This is
the fastest PC that I have ever worked on. I picked it up from DreamTech today, and set-up the Windows XP Pro that they are now going to use.

One thing that was cool was how the Intel Hyper-Threading
support in Windows XP recognized the Pentium 4 processor as *two*
processors. When you open Task Manager it appears to be running
on a two-processor box. And does it scream … it’s amazing to
think that we’ll probably be seeing another 1Ghz added by Christmas and
break the 4Ghz mark …

I also picked up a copy of IBM’s Via Voice today. I want to see
where voice recognition is at these days. I’ll write about my
experience … or maybe I’ll “talk” about my experience in my blog!
