Bill, after seeing several press releases on this issue, it appears that no one really knows where the issue is. Compaq would obviously like to think it's a processor issue, because otherwise it would be a Compaq issue. Intel is not going to say one way or another until they've had time to test it and root cause the problem. The fact that this has leaked into the public, and people still don't know the root cause tells me that it's a pretty obscure problem. Since Compaq's tests were the only ones able to uncover this problem, that suggests that it is infrequent enough not to have been detected elsewhere. All that Intel can do is progress further into debug, but such things are normal in a prerelease state. If this thing hadn't leaked out, you'd have probably never heard of it. Even IBM and others have these kinds of issues, but it's big news when the media is able to catch such a leak and then make ignorant conclusions based on their inexperience with the debug process. wbmw
