Hi

I would like to find out what the current CPU frequency is on my
laptop. I strongly suspect that my laptop, as well as many other
models, pretty much permanently run on degraded performance, even
when under full load.

At the moment, I use both 4.8 and 5.0 Release with apm, but I plan
to upgrade tocurrent soon.

thx, t.
