Well the intel runs at 4X the system bus clock speed and needs to stay in exact synchronization. If the CPU was using it's own clock the CPU would eventually get out of in sync with the all the other stuff going on on the motherboard and you would have stuff happen like for instance, the cpu trying to grab data from a register that it expected to be there but it hadn't made it yet from the memory etc.
It seems the writers of the article forgot about SNDS Sudden Northwood Death Syndrome which seemed to stem from overclocking with too high of voltages. I recall reading that the problem was electromigration.
"This is the first time a case involving a violation of the law has gone to trial, and if ElcomSoft is found guilty, the constitutionality of the DMCA will be tested on appeal" It seems that the biggest threat to the DMCA is if Sklyarov is actually found guilty. I really doubt that the constitution can really support prohibiting the writing of software to allow paying users to USE the books they buy! That is like saying it's constitutional to arrest the inventor of the copy machine for creating a means to copy print a feature that happens to not be included in books.

Then the monitor would have to put out polarized light for the effect to work which it just can't do.
