Have I been *done*?
What's to stop someone selling a 90MHz as a 100 or 120 or 130? The package
says it's a 120. But the CPU has a heatsink/fan on top of the chip and
there's a date quality/control sticker on the bottom, with 9 printed
and a 5 checked, and then months 1 - 12 with 10 checked, and then S11
written in felt tip in a box to the right.
On top of the (Sanyo) fan it says INTEL PENTIUM PROCESOR
07525
109X4412H603
DC12V 0.06A
I'm worried that QEMM 7.5 says it reports a 90MHz pentium ID
Family 5, Model 2 Stepping 5
How do I tell if it *is* a 120?
