When switching from a Celeron-400 @ home to a PIII-733 @ work, the
only program that works noticeably faster is Photoshop when applying
filters on large scans. Otherwise -- mostly the same, even slower
(because the work machine has 128 Mb of memory and home has 224 -- and
I actually use several apps at once).

Yours,
