What are the specs on this machine? I run on a 1.6GHz laptop with 1GB of RAM and a 5400 RPM drive and I get acceptable performance, but nothing to write home about.

On my new laptop with 2.4GHz dual-core and 3GB of RAM with a 7200 RPM disk drive, RDi-SOA screams; it's nearly as fast as my 3GHz desktop (but not quite).

The interesting thing is that neither machine cost that much. My desktop was $700, including 10K Raptor drive, and my laptop was around $1100. You say time is money - then you ought to be spending money once on your hardware to save you time every day you use it.

But perhaps I just view things differently.
