Default Dream Cheeky USB Missile Launcher Review @ TechwareLabs

TechwareLabs goes to war. . . in our office. We received arms from X-tremegeek.com and intend fire at will upon all unsuspecting staff and trespassers here at TWL. If you want to have some fun in your cubicle city then check out our review and see why we loved the USB Missile launcher. Your meetings will never be the same.

"The website says you need a 2.4GHz processor, I know this to be wrong as it ran just fine on my 1.6GHz Core 2 Duo. "

While it doesn't have much bearing on this particular review, I'm not sure how much stock should be put in the words of anyone reviewing cmputer components who doesn't understand the difference between single and dual-core processors.

FYI, the 2.4GHz requirement was for a pentium 4, a single-core processor. A dual core can do the same work as a single core at a lower speed, so yes, a 1.6GHz Duo will run something requiring 2.4GHz. It's not that the requirement was "wrong" necessarily, you just don't seem to understand the difference in the technology. While this is easily excusable for the average person, I'd expect a bit more technical knowledge of someone employed as a reviewer. How are you supposed to give an accurate assesment of an item if you don't even understand how it works?
