testing cpu speed

Hello. Not sure if this is the right group. Is there a way to accurately
test cpu speed? Mine is listed at 2.3 GHz. When I test it with the program
cpuspeed it reports it from 1.08 GHz to 2.1 GHz. I've started experiencing
alot of stuttering watching streaming flash with cpu at 100% and don't know
what's wrong. Rebooting stops it for a little bit but it comes back.
Thank you,
Robin

Have you checked the CPU's temperature? Looked to make sure that the
CPU's fan is working properly and not full of dust?

At least he isn't using that piece of crap - Ubuntu. If he was, the CPU
speed wouldn't matter because he wouldn't be doing any real computing!

Actually, Ubuntu will run on CPUs that Vista can't handle. For example,
with the one I'm using now, an AMD XP 2200+ with only one gig of RAM and
an nVidia 6200 with 512MB, the latest version of Ubuntu flies on this
machine but Vista can't even crawl on it. Not only that, I have XP on
another drive on this machine and it consistently gets 2 megs less of
Internet download speed than Ubuntu does.

The fact that you have to stick your head into a thread and diss Ubuntu
only reveals your insecurity regarding Ubuntu and you lack of ability to
use it properly and do "real computing" with it.

Sorry to disappoint. If Ubuntu was such a great alternative to Windows,
everyone would be ditching Vista/XP and migrating to the Linux platform.
Just isn't happening on a big scale. After many years of Linux/Ubuntu being
FREE, still less than ONE PERCENT of the desktop users think it's a good
idea. Imagine after all these years and with a FREE OS, most everyone still
doesn't want it.

That should tell you all you need to know about it. No insecurity at all
about Ubuntu. Nobody wants it. Plain and simple.
Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out.

That's because most people haven't heard of it. A client came into my
office the other day and when I showed her Ubuntu, she asked, "Is that
the new Vista?" Ubuntu doesn't have the marketing money that MS has so
it will take awhile but once the word gets round, Ubuntu will kick MS'
ass and take names. It is interesting that Ubuntu is spreading quicker
in Europe than in the USA but here most people do NOT buy an OEM
computer but have one of the three major chains build one to suit. Maybe
with the new tech-friendly presidency, the Americans will become more
educated regarding what's available in computers.

Most users don't know about it. Hence, my noble mission.

A lie. Millions not only want it but are very happy with it.

> That should tell you all you need to know about it.

Using a lie for a premise results in a lie for a conclusion.

Nope, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that you're lying
and don't know what the **** you're talking about.

I would agree that you would have a noble mission if you told people in your
community about Ubuntu. Telling people here every day is not a noble
mission, it is trolling activity. If you read the respones to most of your
posts about Ubuntu (exclude mine and Franks) you will see that most everyone
here does not want to hear about Ubuntu in a Vista forum.

That type of intelligent, logical reasoning is way beyond the
comprehension of our resident lying linux troll.
He is that sick in his stupid, ignorant, lying head.

Keep telling yourself that to justify your lies and insults. It won't
work. Lurkers far outnumber posters here, chum.
