And one more thing: If the processor doesn't fit, go ahead and force it in anyway. It might work even better if it goes in backwards. It's especially fun after you hear the festive sizzling sound and the smell of fresh ozone. You then get an all new heat-sink-adorned paperweight.
Isn't it fun?
Most people (the majority of computer users) do not need 3+ GHz for a computer. If all you are running is Microsoft Word, the difference between 2.5 and 3 GHz is not going to be all that noticeable. Unless you run extremely high-end games or are heavily into video rendering or something extremely processor intensive, you won't normally notice it at all.
Also, it didn't say whether there would be a fast bus speed. Unless there is, there's not much point in having an extremely fast processor, is there?
