    Hi Guys

    Stupid question of the year time

    My laptop has 1598.7 mhz

    I am looking to buy a netbook with 1.66 ghz am I right in thinking this laptop is well slow compaired to the ghz netbook?

    Will it make a big difference?

    Thanks

    James

    1598.7 mhz = 1.6 gigahertz apx
    Just move the decimal three places to the left.

    Don't expect to move mountains with a netbook. They're brilliant for what they are, but they're not a laptop replacement.

    It's basically the same as 1 kilometer converted to 1000 meters - math tells me that one is faster, though not notably for an end-user.

    If I'm not mistaken, you already owned 1598.7 mhz laptop and want to buy a 1.66 ghz netbook? It's almost the same clock. You should stick with your laptop.

    Yeah, really, 1598.7 MHZ is 1.6 GHZ. You should get something a little bit better.

    Yes It will make a difference in size i Mean....;)
    You might buy the notebook if you really need it, if you feel it will be more convenient than your current laptop

    1 Ghz equivalent to 1024 Mhz!

    So it means you already have Ghz Processor
