RE: Generating Constants in TI-57 ROM
Given the stunning raw CPU power of modern hardware, Microsoft Windows should boot in one second. Instead you become convinced that there is a trained gerbil running around inside the PC box, setting switches and pulling levers, and the poor little guy has to stop to catch his breath every few seconds.

Even with a zippy four gerbil processor (Intel Core i7), everything takes longer than you want it to, especially on an old OS install.

Moore's law needs to be amended: CPU power will double every year, but software bloat will triple over the same period.
