This popped back into my head after three years.

They claim they made a 6.8GHz laptop, single core, in 2005.

True or BS?

(EDIT: I know this sounds dull but that's all I recall.)

I looked into this a while back. Pretty sure it was BS.

Definitely Bull.
Their site is horribly made a full of crappy photoshops of products and awards.

There's no chance there's any validity to this.

Complete bull

Even the comments say so. Interesting tho.

Don't expect 1Tb of Ram any time soon.

Unless it comes with a high-end version of Windows Server or has an Itanium processor, you can't use 1 TB of RAM anyway.

(XP 64 bit and Vista Business and Ultimate can handle 128 GB. Vista Home Premium tops out at 16 GB.)

LÃ¶lz, that's not even a good shop.
1) The text 6,80 is placed one pixel too high.
2) And they're using a decimal comma instead of a decimal point for 6,80, but not for the RAM. Meaning they probably used a machine with 1 GB of RAM and edited the G into a T.
