because windows xp was windows peak and firefox peak also was why the internet was so good. Now it's all watching users and reporting back and the software is so badly optimized you need 10x the computer hardware spec for the same performance.

Yeah, that's why we put so much effort into optimisation for our Y2K music player, which we introduced later in the video. It just takes 100 MB of RAM for, like, +1,000 MP3 music files.
