I think that getting rid of the Mhz is an iffy decision at this stage of the marketing war on "The Megahertz Myth", especially getting rid of it in the BIOS. That is just giving everyone less information. But if they are going to do this, I think they should at least give the consumer some kind of, at least slightly, meaningful number. While I know gigaflops still does not tell the whole story at least it would help give the consumer some kind of idea on the performance they would see.
ok, so the eco thing didn't work, we here in california got ourselves in bad shape. So, you say we should just have to suffer??? how do you think the world economy would fair if there was no power in california? true, most large companies have redundant net presence in other areas but the mind share is here. If california loses power the whole world pays. I think other states should show a bit of compassion and help out. At least we were trying to help the enviornment.
