Macintel part 2

just a couple more things.

1. My clock was running a lot faster than my wrist watch. Weird, I thought. System Profiler reported that the processor speed was at 1.4GHz while it's a 1.86GHz Core2 Duo E6300. So I thought my bios setting was wrong. Sure. But fixing that didn't do the trick either. I know that I applied the jAs 10.4.9 and have the 8.9.1 kernel so I shouldn't have the issues with the older 8.8.1 kernel as described here under Time is wrong. But I tried the fsb=266 trick, and everything worked! Now I wonder if the same thing was causing Skype to have funky audio and drop calls. Huh.
