Gigahertz, not gigabytes (was Jaws 8 slow alt tab,)

Still on my first mug of coffee, I thank Allen for the private message 
reminding me that I meant to describe my computer processor's speed in terms 
of gigahertz, not gigabytes. For those who don't know, the first refers to 
speed and frequency, and is related to the term we use to identify radio 
frequencies. Gigabyte, by contrast indicates an amount of digital 
information capacity, as in the measure of RAM or the capacity of a hard 
drive.

Just in case anyone got confused by my sleepy mistake. Sorry, and Thanks a 
lot, Allen.
