                      | if you guys/gals don't mind, could you run this program and post back the speed: (ofcourse its going to need the vb6 runtime)
 
 www.angelfire.com/games5/visualgamebasic/wbs.zip
 
 unzip it then run "Wannabe Script.exe" click on [Load] then go to where you unzip the file and go into the Scripts folder, open "speed_test.wbs" then when its done loading press [Hide Text Boxes] then [Start] after about 5 seconds press [Stop] then in the very bottom center text box (Debug Print Text Box) there should be something like

 Post those numbers including you CPU brand and Mhz, then Ram size
 
 Thanks!

                      | Dunno for sure why mine would be faster. I did some tweaking to get rid of unnecessary services and such. Maybe that's it? 
 I have 25 processes running when I test, counting firefox, taskmanager, and your program. Also, it says I have 771MB ram free when your program is running.
 
 Changing your program's priority in task manager doesn't seem to change my number's any, but if I have J. River Media Center playing music minimized in the background with the g-force visualization on, my numbers are more like 110 max, 46 min.
 
 I'll see if I can try it on another computer later.

 Seems like a dramatic difference compared to my machine for only a 200MHz difference, but she doen't beat her computer into submission as thoroughly as I do.
 
 
 *EDIT: Furthur testing gave 79-62 more often than 93-62, so I changed the numbers.
