in Whats with Apple & the dual 1.42 gig? Comment by tjm February 2003

My biggest goof lately was installing the 9.2.2 upgrade in Classic mode in OS X. It installed apparently just fine (it should have noticed it was running in Classic, not native, mode and stopped me), but when it was done, all sorts of Classic apps …

At the very least, I hope they make it fairly straightforward to overclock them ourselves! There'll be 2.5 GHz 970s running around one way or another :cool:
