Think about this, you overclockers - when you overclock, you're stealing. Say you bought an AMD 955 X4 CPU, and you wanted more power. Well, if you overclocked your chip, and then ignored the launch of the 965 CPU, you're stealing. You cost AMD a sale. IF you hadn't overclocked, you would have bought the new CPU to get to a higher speed.
You "unlockers" are just as bad. Paying for a dual/triple-core, and getting a quad-core. Costing AMD untold millions of quad-core sales.
It's no different than downloading and burning a DVD, or borrowing a buddy's DVD and copying it, rather than buying your own.
Each one of these examples is costing companies untold millions in lost sales.
Let this be a warning to you all, once the industry starts taking note of rampant "CPU speed piracy", you're all in trouble.
Then again, so am I.
