I think the author of that benchmark is caught up in doing benchmarks as opposed to real work.

Cosider the fact that Anand real work is doing his American History homework in his high school here at North Carolina, you should take it with a grain of salt.

Robert - RE: "Overclocked systems are OK for games where a crash means you lose a chance for a high score, in business the person buying, recommending (or even using) an overclocked system would most likely lose his job when something goes wrong.

The 1GHz Athlon system isn't a normal, overclocked system, it is a Kryotech system. Kryotech sells systems that cool processors to -40 deg C. For more info about them check out their website kryotech.com .
