Re: Enough grunt for v4r5?

If you pick an interactive 'feature' level that matches your current CPW, you'll
probably experience diminished performance.  Keep in mind that this feature acts

as some of us have come to expect from past experience.  (You'll get the 
promised
CPW and probably not be happy with it.)
