Hi Mandar, I agree that yours machine is better than a average desktop pc.
But merely having 1 GB of RAM or a 3.2 Ghz processor wont tell the performance
as said by Peter you need some performance tuning.
Like how many applications are currently running, how much memory is being used by them.
The FSB, the RAM speed, the type,amount and speed of the cache,etc are some other factors.
Hope this helps
