At 133 - 166 Mhz, they're plenty powerful enough to run a modern
multi-tasking OS, such as Linux for example. In fact they're the
equivalent of the best mainframe machines of the early 1980s. They're
many times more powerful than the ultra-secret government computers that
ran the air defense system in the late 60s. And you're complaining about
DVD playback?
