my dad had a case with a turbo button and the mhz display right up until like 2005, he kept finding ways to connect the mhz display to modern (at the time) CPU's that ran at like 2.5GHz and so just pegged the thing at 99 all the time. he likes lots of lights and blinky things.

guys this thread is making me realize how loving weird and broken my dad is thanks
