1. Why don't companies these days tell what the cpu speed is?
2. I give PowerPoint presentations to various fishing groups,and usually borrow a laptop, install my disk , and connect to a PP projector.
I don't think this machine has a disk slot -so could I somehow put a copy of the the PP presentation in the machine, and run the PP show directly from this computer to the projector? - Tom
Get a USB disk. Or large card.
CPU speeds expressed on MHz/GHz used to be reliable in simpler times. But now complex architectures—including dual, quad and soon octal cores—mean clock speed is only one factor.
A 1.6GHz quad core is going to be much faster than a 1.6GHz Athlon or P4.
