Fred, >>Do you call that a bug??<< You may call it whatever you wish, but the ugly fact remains unchanged: ANY MULTIUSER SYSTEM can be crashed instantly, and without any info who did it. This is a major security hole, do you understand that, IS-planner? There are hundreds of cracker and virus makers who would love to explore this opportunity, just in days! Every P5 in such systems must be replaced. The question is: by which processor?

I even can think of Intel conspiracy here - they left this hole wilfully with intent to make faster transition to P-II/PPro systems when the time will come...

Great job, Intel.
