impressed me--the console had an analog meter in it calibrated in

Several generic clone PC cases had a 2 digit numeric display.
I moved the jumpers on one in the lab from "10" to "18". Two instructors commented about how much faster it was now running, than it had been!

(for anybody not familiar with generic clone hardware, it did not measure ANYTHING, it simply had two values that it could display based on a "speed" pin. "HI" and "LO" were a popular alternative)
