Most computer sales people try to sell the fastest computer they can for the most money. They don't really care what the person will use the computer for. These days, most people don't need a powerful computer for what they do. The sad thing is, the 2 popular operating systems require a lot of power from the computer to run. The average person today could be happy enough with a 386 running Windows 3.1. But then big companies wouldn't make any money.
