It seems to me that if it means the highest frequency used in the PC, you could get an optimistic result by using a very 'slow' PC and therefore you would have to use a PC with the highest possible frequency, and that is impracticable because such a beast may not be available to you, and tomorrow there could be a faster one. My conclusion is that logic dictates that it is the highest frequency used in the peripheral. But interpretations of standards are not always based on logic.(:-( -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
