Lappy designers also like to use CPU throttle-back as part of power saving scheme.





That's surely what it was for, Mac. In the Asus Eee, they set those first 7" ones underclocked to a fixed maximum speed of 600, a huge throttle. But that maximum is controllable by a simple slider, and you don't have to know anything about clocking.

If Joan enjoyed any success (as she has), I was thinking about getting a totally-cheap 7" Eee for a vest-pocket instrument module, since keyboard and screen size don't matter for that. But it's so small there's no space to upgrade drives sensibly. I guess the tiniest Eee is out, as a sample player.
