Update : And so reads the original text of this article. Averting further ridicule, sometime in the afternoon Pacific Time, the reference to "faster than light" was replaced with this text:-
"The souped-up processor speed gets an additional boost with an advanced cache memory architecture that provides ultrafast, dedicated memory with massively enhanced throughput.
The power of satire, at work, for sure.
We have now learned why Apple used this marketing term - for three years - and will explain it to you tomorrow. It's even more appalling than we feared.
