8,429 GHz.

That should probably play just fine with 100+ dwarves and HFS open

Sorry to burst your bubble but I'm pretty sure that's only an 8.429GHz processor. I want to say the french use commas and decimal points in opposite fashion to the english speaking world but I'm not entirely certain for the way they display thousands. I want to say eight-thousand four-hundred and twenty nine and two one-hundredths in french would be 8.429,02

supposed;y a pentium 4 was overclocked to 8ghz many years ago, but i should point out that a newer chip could do a lot more with that speed than a good old penty..

It's the difference between how Americans delineate decimal points (with a period) and Europeans (with a comma).

It causes no end of confusion.

Well here it is '.' to display decimals, and ',' for thousands (England)

Its some of those other countries.

I don't feel like looking it up.

Erm...of course it's only 8,4 GHz ... or 8429 MHz if you want. I never thought this was 8429 GHz as that would be really ridiculous

Still 8,4 GHz ought to be enough for a nice little fortress

the anglophones use the . as we use the ,. 1,500 for them is one thousand and five hundred, not one and a half written with more zeros than it should
