SteveC - Re: "Have you placed your order for a 1GHz PC yet? If you order today, Gateway will ship you one next week"

NO THANKS !!!

Gateway is selling Overclocked 800 MHz CPUs with jacked up voltages and Massive Thermal-Meltdown-Prevention Brick Heat Sink with Double-Fan construction - and the chip even has a Crippled 1/3 speed L2 cache !!

This is truly a sucker's purchase.

I will wait for the superior 1 GHz Coppermine with a full speed L2 cache - and one that doesn't require a Lennox Air Conditioner to cool.
