CLR,

You'll start noticing performance differences in performance when you work
with LARGE numbers of data and formulas. The performance gains of
TYPICALLY
sized workbooks aren't very noticeable from one generation CPU to the
next,
assuming RAM size is identicle. Although, my rule of thumb: the faster
the
clockspeed and the larger the RAM size, the more you can number crunch.
Also, with multi-core processors, 64-bit chips, and incorporation of new
RAM
types (ie DDR2s), my mouth drools with anticipation....hehe.

Hi All..........

Does anyone have any first hand knowledge of the advantages or
disadvantages
of the different processors today, (Celeron, Centrino, P4, AMD, etc
etc),
when being used with Excel. Particularly when using multi sessions of
Excel
with complex workbooks.

TIA for any comments.........
