Stuttering in Second Life

I finally managed to find a way to take a snapshot of myself in Second Life. Here I am, at the Tropics Casino main bar:

Dead place, but I don't mind too much because I'm already incredibly frustrated with the stuttering performance I get while in-world. Whether it's my 2 year old Dell laptop that's the problem or its latency issues between myself and the SL servers, it has been painful to try to interact inworld for longer than five minutes per visit. Though today I made my first SL friend and managed to stay unlagged long enough to trade social niceties and add her my list.

I'm thinking I'll have to be sourcing a new PC early next year...
