Twister: A manager's job is to make the tough calls. Scott and Ed have to take calculated risks. Non-error-checking memory is cheap, and therefore good value for customers, good for margins and good for shareholder value. If you go around being a fraidy cat, worrying about invisible theoretical cosmic particles while your shareholders watch your gross margins shrink, you can't call yourself a manager. I mean, they could also encase Sun servers in lead to protect them from Martian death rays. If a machine goes down once in a while, you just remind the customer about the fix he would be in with Microsoft and the customer feels better. What kind of Royal Crown are you drinking? This is a competitive business. --QS
