Tony, when it comes to CPU's, we will never compromise reliability I feel an obligation to do you a favor and let you in on a secret: You are fighting a war that doesn't exist. It's all in your head. For the second time, the CPU is just about the most reliable part of the computer. Let me give you some hints about things that fail a lot more frequently: Power supplies fans, floppy drives hard drives tape drives keyboards mice power switches network cards SIMMs lose contact batteries and CMOS that store your setup Zip drives Jazz drives On software side, things that cause problems frequently (far more frequently than hardware): DOS Windows 3.1 Windows 95 Windows NT drivers to control the hardware devices shrink wrapped software custom developed software shareware freeware Utilities, setup, shortcuts that your MIS makes your own utilities, shortcuts, and changes to setup Things that fail very infrequently (if ever): CPUs chipsets RAM Joe
