I would think a useful feature on the P4 would be to have a way to read the duty cycle of the throttle back mechanism (say with an 8 or 10 bit register).

This would be useful to designers to let them know if further cooling is necessary, as well as to users - to let them know that possibly ventilation of a computer may be inadequate.

To add my .02 worth to the debate, anyone that could conceivably claim a crash is better than a throttle back, doesn't do any useful work on a computer.
