yes my take is this,you can use low specs for cs4 and website development,
but the speed would be slow and NOT effective,so let this pple buy buy a
faster and reliable machine i still insist on HP/DELL small factor with
atleast 2.4ghz/40gb/512mb/cdrw black crt monitor.let them be a companied by
a very honest technician who can not broker them.iam a professonal in this
field and i know what im talking about.thanks

TweetDeck and Seesmic are largely Desktop Adobe Air apps and are not
popularly used by most kenyans, probably because of the difficulty in
installation and they appear to be really slow although feature
packed.
Echofon had a few hits 0.5%, gravity never appeared once.
