<I believe ... DELL, Gateway and the others have the skills to do that and to suggest otherwise is simply irresponsible. You have no facts>

I have one.
Got a DELL i815 1GHz machine few days ago, just
to benchmark it with some relevant applications.
Guess what? It was DOA. Why? The massive _heat sink_
has fallen from the CPU, during transportation
I guess. Do I need to mention that the size
and weight of the sink was presumably dictated by the
ill 60C requirement:)

BTW, it does use the CPUID=686 cC0 stepping. Nevertheless,
the machine fails in BAPCO Sysmark2000. Same old
story as 1.13? Recall?
