Say in the last couple of years...
I personally think it's Shuttle SFF PCs / Mini-Itx systems from shuttle and mini-itx motherboard from VIA etc...
and with that the realisation that speed isn't everything, and that perhaps size and noise levels are actually more important...
What do you think?

Yup I'd have to say Broadband, although AMD's 64bit CPUs are VERY close behind and the best technical marvel, Intel's HT and Matrox's Fragment AA come close too though. It's an amazing fact that the CPU can pull so far ahead in 32bit mode (apps & OS) at only 2.0ghz and 2.2ghz against the P4 @ 3.2ghz 800FSB. I wouldn't expect it to be stonkingly faster when 64bit stuff arrives but it's still VERY fast and efficient, the perfect way to get 64bit into the mainstream.
