Who is "your" and "you"? Clearly this is not *everybody's* experience. The
effects seem to range from serious to only mildly annoying and are different
from system to system. No one says it isn't buggy, but to infer it is
"throttling" everybody's machine is just plain wrong.

Sorry, I excelled in reading comprehension at school and I've got a formidable

and I suggest you read them again.
