At home I have a 2003 dual gig G4 mac, with 1 gig of ram.

How come gifs on my CPU at work run kind of choppy, and slow, and all gifs run in real time, very fast, and never pause, or stop on my Mac?

Just a question. Do Macs really just run that much smoother? And it's not just the gifs. It seems like any program that I run on the mac, or any video I watch seems to run better on the less powerful mac. Why?

Just curious what you guys think.
exact same scenario, here. I use the G4 as well, i'm guessing memory, which browser do you use?
