I know i get a low socre on this but i thought id do a test on this old steam driven machine. Last night i ran 3dmark03 and got 150 marks.

Now i've just got rid of Norton Internet Security so i was thinking, now i have free ram plus fewer processes running so i was wondering what would happen to 3dmark03.

IT WENT DOWN!!!!! to 146 why???

ive been running a hardware firewall for 9 months so thought it was about time i ditched the software firewall. I've just loaded Norton Antivirus 2005 instead

Obviously the norton wasn't making enough of a difference to alter your score,Least you scored something I never score (lonely man lol)

ermmm Norton took all of my Free Memory. At least it doesnt keep hammering my swap file now.

Thats a difference to me
