633493 2008-01-24 05:58:00 there is a few VIA cpu's, only realy good for basic useage but they do run cool and low power. i think they are about the only cpu that comes with passive heatsink. the older ones wher based on socket A i think. tweak'e (69)
633494 2008-01-24 06:34:00 Yeah, well, dont get one will you, did you see the bit about 35 minute to extract a 12Mb zip file. Wow, they must be a very crippled CPU! SolMiester (139)

They are. The warehouse was selling them for a while - in a full size case, trying to pass them off as real computers. A Duron 800 would outperform it.
