Ok we need now quadcores to have fast accessibility software? Sory that
is not what most of the users want.
I have a pentium 4 2400 Mhz with 2 gb ram. 
Under windows my jaws runs very fast and I don't need to buy a new
machine.
BTW. I am working under linux since 9 years and have windows as dualboot
option. Most time linux is running (console).
