""we have to stress that Opteron performs slower than the top Athlon XP models""

""We have already pointed out more than once that high-speed ALU is required to ensure high-speed MP3 encoding. That is why Pentium 4 with its powerful Hyper-Threading technology wins this test. Opteron working at a not very high core clock frequency of only 1.8GHz, even falls behind the fastest Athlon XP processors.""

""we can conclude that Opteron based systems do not cope very well with data encoding tasks, especially against a colorful background of more successful competitors.""

""Opteron falls behind Athlon XP in all tests, and in every two tests out of three it also falls behind the top Pentium 4 processor model.""

**ROFL**

That's some crazy sh__. Now popegoldx has an evil clone!

Wait ... if popegoldx is the evil, then does that make his clone a good clone or an eviler clone?

:\

Now I'm all confused.

What's with those funky double-double quotation marks anyway? ¿""?

I reckon it makes him a <b>clown clone</b> :smile:
Does that come with or without the big red nose? :)

Maybe we should start a poll:
1) Good Clone
2) Eviler Clone
3) Clown Clone
4) Yo Mamma

I think I'm putting my vote on Clown Clone...
