I'm not picking on you, but this is a common sentiment among many programmers that really aggravates the hell out of me. Because of that kind of thinking, lots and lots of people are being forced to replace perfectly good hardware just to be able to run software "designed" for newer systems. The expected benefits from Moore's Law are nearly nonexistent, except for a few specific niches.
