UNSTABLE P4 crashes at E3 in Intel booth.

theinquirer.net

--------------------------------------------------

[...]

They were demoing a variety of programs on row of 1.7GHz P4 boxes. Black and White caught my eye as I play it quite often on my 1.33GHz Athlon box. As it was loading it had noticeably frozen up with the loading indicator bar barely full. I remarked that my Athlon loaded it much faster. Attempts to exit and restart resulted in a BSOD, or as I called it at the moment, clock throttling. Attempts to revive the beasts failed. So the Xbox wasn't the only thing crashing at E3. Intel served up non alcoholic drinks, muffins and the blue screen of death plate special.

Elmer, looks like even Intel can't get their UNSTABLE P4's to work properly.
