Yes, I overclocked my Intel Pentium Processor 955 to nearly 4.8GHz

That CPU is good for much more than 4.2Ghz

I'd be tempted to sell it, but I'm ready for a huge upgrade anyway. I'd have to keep it.

hey i will be happy to give up my spot for you, you can have the politics, healthcare (wait what healthcare), minimaly educated masses, lack of culture, consumer based society. IMO paying more for computer parts is well worth the quality of life trade offs you get by living out side the US.

Well that's just great. So only the parts of America that are 'freaked' can enjoy the fun. Oh wait. I guess all of America is a 'freak zone.' However, I think where I live it should be called uberfreakazoid. :rolleyes: :lol:

hey hey hey now, americans can come to canada anytime for our free health-care, its not like we watch our boarders, heck, some US senators want to put a fence up to stop people from walking up here for cheap beer (aka, american moonshine), and the canadian public isnt that well educated, ever been to newfoundland (its like alabama or southern states that people make fun of in the states). and as for the canadian culture, we are too afriad that we will offend someone by making it "Canadian" and not multi-cultural, so we let people do as they wish and thats y alot of people dont like canada, we're too polite (watch Canadian Bacon)
