I also question what the hell is "Ghz level performance"? Especially when the CPU runs at "~800Mhz", obviously less than 1Ghz. Plus frequency is a crap way to measure actual performance anyway.

I took it to mean "at 800MHz, it performs on the same level of some chips that clock in at 1GHz", kind of like how AMD used to label their chips by "equivalent Intel GHz" rather than their literal speed. Like you said, clock speed is not really the issue.

It is Ghz performance if you round up to the nearest Ghz.

So if you've got $800K, does 'rounding it up' then make you a real millionaire?
