Hey - have some consideration for those of us with older computers
(and I don't mean my VAXen...) It takes a good fraction of a
second for me to check the signature on your emails (and that's
only to get as far as gpg saying "you don't have this guy's
public key", never mind the actual decryption/hashing bit) on
my P133...
I really must buy a new machine... Now, should I get one
fast CPU or two slower ones. Liam? (hint, hint :-)
Later,
Kenn
