Toms Hardware Reviews 65 CPU's, Past & Present

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the now-that-takes-some-work dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Toms Hardware has an interesting review of 65 processors ranging from 100 MHz to 3066 MHz. They spent more than 300 hours benchmarking and recording the scores. Worth a quick glance, especially for the Unreal Tournament 2003 scores on the 100 MHz pentium!" CT: Yeah yeah. It's a dupe. Funny that not a single reader emailed me in almost 2 hours to tell me.

    Not really, as these guys don't "work on stories", they just accept submitted stories and click "yes let this through" or "no don't let this through". It's not like this takes the 1:40+ hours of spacing between the stories.

    So no excuse really :-)

  5. Re:THERE IS NO APOSTROPHE IN CPUs!!! by Adrenochrome · · Score: 3, Informative

    Assuming that the plural, possessive, and plural possessive forms of acromyms follow the same form as for ordinary nouns, then the use of an apostrophe depends on the usage. For the plural form, of course no apostrophe should be used. There can be an apostrophe in CPUs if you are referring to some property belonging to the CPU, as in "The CPU's instructions are well designed."

    If you are describing a property beloning to a group of CPUs then the largely ignored plural possessive form of "CPUs'" should likely be used. Usually reworking the sentence structure can eliminate the need for this form.

    Now lets discuss the combined slashdot editors' frightful confusion regarding homonyms, shall we?
