It took this beast 10 seconds to multiple two numbers together. http://www.dailytech.com/Worlds+Oldest+Working+Computer+Comes+Back+to+Life/article29233.htm

Of course it's unknown if those numbers were 2x2 or 15662.1628x15987.15635 but still...
No matter how bad the new homepage sucks or how bungled the new management is...

To all the original writers/contributors and volunteers, please know that I have nothing but the deepest love for you and the work you've done.

I'm going to use my impressive IQ and say... no. No it won't. It might just get past the loading screen. I blame TWIMTBP for forcing features that would ruin the performance of their competitors, such as this.
