    All that's really nice, but it doesn't increase my /. experience in any way. So why would I want it?

    Oh my God, they've invented the Amiga!

    Or a Commodore 64 or an Atari 800 (the latter of which was released in 1979).

    It is interesting to note that the blitting capabilities of an Amiga can be emulated in software on a 486 and still be significantly faster than the Amiga hardware. It wasn't _that_ fast.
