Its just schnitzengruben software... the more grunt you give a system, the
worse the software gets.  We were using the same applications 30 years ago...
sure some are a bit different, there's more encryption going on, but the
basic function hasn't changed.  Why do you need to uber powered thing to
manage the same functions?

whichever way you look at it, whats being described is waste... I wouldn't
describe a ryzen 7 as old...if its obsoleted by software requirements its
waste.
