Intel finds flaw in chip

Intel, the world's largest computer-chip maker, says it has found a bug in a
small percentage of its Pentium III chips that interferes with computers' boot-up
process. Dell Computer said that it has stopped shipments and manufacturing of
systems with Pentium III chips. Intel (INTC) discovered an ''anomaly'' in the
latest series of its Pentium III family of chips that occasionally causes PCs to
fail to boot up on the first try, a spokesman said. The machines start on the next
attempt, he said. The problem has been seen only in laboratories and occurs in
1% to 2% of the chips, the spokesman said. The number of cases is small
enough that Intel plans to continue shipping the chips and won't slow production,
he said.
