I am on a relatively slow XP box... 500Mhz. Yes, it blows. With my recent Mac conversion, I'm unlikely to pay actual money for a new PC.

Slowness is general with Firebird. I was ad-hoc testing creating new windows (CTRL-N) and Firebird struck me as slightly slower... same general feeling firing up new tabbed windows.

You know, this could just be a by-product of sitting at a Dual 1.42 G4 all day with Safari...
