No worry. There is never a bad time to get stomped on for being off topic.

As long as they don't start using other irrelevant trivia like line width
(90 nanometer technology) and how many balls they have in their grids
(LGA775). To the general population this is quite useless technospeak that
is bound to start a "my lines are narrower than yours" or "I have more
balls than you do" war.
BMW has used this in the past with cars like the 325e. It was a low reving
beast that was meant to get good fuel mileage but suckered a lot of people
by having a larger engine than the 320i.
