Back then in late 90's the processor speed are measured in term of mega hertz. Now it is measured in giga hertz and even the number of cores for us to choose from. From that moment in the 90's to some point in 2010, I can say that we achieve what we have achieved in terms of the power of computing in everyday life.
Ordinary people don't play games and yet they want to most powerful computer they can buy - but seldom use the intended power of that computing machine to its fullest.
When some company release a retina display - the geeks are scrambling on reviews on how vibrant and how the pixels are… but some people forget that some are just as good as it was for the intended purpose.
What do ordinary people do in their computer? surf the web, make some transactions online, maybe social networking like facebook and google +.
ask your self. Do you really need a quad core or the six core products just to surf the web?
"Are we getting dumber or the computer is just too powerful for us?"
