Rob, are you thinking that the code of most programs has been well thought
out and trimmed to run with the least amount of fluff? While it is true that
many of the programs are very graphic intensive, I think it strange that as
processing speeds increase and HD space increases that a seemingly equal
amount of bloat appears in programs, web sites, and even email. And they all
want to be "the" program that you use as a default and running in the back
ground.  How many processes do you really need running at any one time?

Eric,
I dare to disagree with you on this one.

Just because they
can add a neat graphic function, they do. Processing speed goes down and
soon that Super Duper Dual processor and Massive HD is crawling along
stuffed to the brim garbage.

I am constantly banging heads with the web people at work that want to
just up the bit rate of our radio stream, add stupid flash to web
pages, etc....

I do understand what your complaint is about, just because many more
people have high speed now doesn't mean that we should stuff the pages
with so much garbage that only the high speed users can see them. Less
is still more!
