In 2-3 years Riva will be considered a dino as well.. So will the MMX
processor, and very likely the P2 processor.. As well as 56Kbps
modems, any HDDs under 3 GB, 2D video cards with less than 4MB RAM,
etc. etc. etc.... Point is, most everything you can buy now will be
outdated by then, so why not get the best available currently?
