I never got Leif's original post, but I don't understand this anyway... I thought chip speeds were determined by the quality of the manufacturing process...?!? Meaning, they produce a batch of chips and rate them according to what speed they can attain. Sorta like sorting the biggest and best apples into the premium class (and charge accordingly) and the others into the regular class of apples... Not a hardware guy, mind you... But this is my understanding of Intel chip speeds... | -----Original Message----- | [mailto:midrange-l-admin@midrange.com]On Behalf Of Nathan M.
