		<description>&lt;blockquote cite=&quot;In mitigation, Windows 7 runs so well on current hardware that even this budget PC offers snappy performance.&quot;&gt;
Not to be picky, but I have always wondered how having a desktop SO running smoothly in a machine several orders of magnitude more powerful than old Silicon Graphics workstations (those &quot;high end&quot; professional workstations of the 80&#039;s) is remarkable and not just a must-have. It may be a budget PC, but is more powerful than many five year servers out there.

To be fair, that can also be applied to other current OSes as well, though I guess the old joke still applies: &lt;em&gt;&quot;Microsoft Windows: Offering 286 performance since 1990&quot;&lt;/em&gt;</description>
