    Can Superman beat the Flash? I assume you're talking about in a race because if you're talking about some type of fight, it's not a contest. Superman could easily own the Flash.

    Now, in terms of racing the Flash, you've got to be a bit more specific. Which Flash are we talking about? The original Golden Era Flash (Jay Garrick) or are we talking about the later versions, (Barry Allen and Adam West)? Ultimately though, the sad truth is that Superman usually concedes defeat due to the strange circumstances surrounding how the race comes into being. As you can see by going here, the two have raced but it has never been brought about as just a race - there are always implications to the result. Furthermore, Superman being the ultimate boy scout, would never want to beat the Flash in a race because that's all the Flash has. Superman can FLY!!

    In short, if Superman were so inclined, he could mop the floor with the Flash but he chooses not to because he's a really nice guy.

    Oh, the Athlon 64 is not a neccescary step for most users. The current crop of applications that people use on a day to day basis don't need that large of an instruction space available.

    I still think some of his finest work was embodied in the old classic poisoning pigeons in the park.

    I love that one...
