FLAC files are choppy with the T60/XP

Intel Core Duo T2400
Code Name Yonah
Package Socket 479 mPGA
Technology 65nm
Specification Genuine Intel CPU T2400 @ 1.83GHz
Rated Bus Speed 665.1 MHz
Stock Core Speed 1833 MHz
Stock Bus Speed 166 MHz
Average Temperature 54 øC
L1 Data Cache Size 2 x 32 KBytes
L1 Instructions Cache Size 2 x 32 KBytes
L2 Unified Cache Size 2048 KBytes

And they're also choppy on my Lenovo 3000 G430. That one is at  
a remote site, so I can't confirm specific specs for it right  
now.

I haven't tried Bj”rn's files yet. I have to dig up my ABBA CDs  
first so that I can do proper A-B comparisons.
