The wierd thing is not the hardcoded 500 Mhz. It's that it all started here at Amiga.org. Asian1 started the "
Yellow Dog Linux on Amiga One?" where he posted a message from the AmigaOne list where AKCONTROLS said he had Yellow Dog Linux 2.2 running. Then I posted another post from that list where AKCONTROLS said he got Mac on Linux to run on Yellow Dog. People asked for screen shots. I posted on the AmigaOne list asking AKCONTROLS for some screen shots. He sent me two and I posted them in the Yellow Dog thread in the Forums and in the comments to the Yellow Dog news item.
From there it got posted to slashdot, then to Ann, then back to here....
I would have posted them as a News item, but there as already a Yellow Dog news item and I didn't really see them as new worthy. Obviously, people see this as a bigger deal than I do...
