Alright geeky but a giggle for us geek types

PC World are advertising a machine with 3.33Mhz proc speed and 512MB of Cache instead of 3.33GHz proc speed and 512KB of Cache.

Imagine the size of the heatsink you'd need to accomodate 512M cache on a 3Mhz processor. And for that rig to be running vista :shock: That's some serious overclocking! :lol:

Pity it wasn't tesco that were selling it. Their policy is: if its incorrectly priced/advertised, you take it back, get a re-fund, then get it free :!: :P
Like what happened with all of those xbox's a few weeks ago......only wish I could have got one before they noticed :shock:

Yer Vista would have a hard time, though something they dont mention is that 512mb is the minimum spec for Vista Basic which isnt really that good.
