Confused- tj.max on Intel Atom CPU's?
Hi!
I'm confused about the info on TJ.Max on the web. Some say its the max temp and should not be reached, otherwise system shuts down ....others say that, with Intel chips, its the ideal temperature for operation and if it drops DOWN, to 0, the slower and worst it gets (so 20*C is really bad for my Atom Atom N270 (Diamondville) )
My education so far is:

Currently, after bringing up my PC from shutdown or sleep, my temperature according to Core Temp is 70-73*C, and then (oddly- to my thinking), it drops to 60s- 50s when I start running Firefox, Windows Explorer, etc. Here's a current snapshot.
Also wanted a clarify, especially for anyone who uses Core Temp. According to this, the Low is 79*C! Shouldnt the low be- well a lower number?
