Re: "For instance, last week someone returned an Abit BH6 motherboard that they had overclocked with a Celeron 300A processor. This person only bought the board from us -- complained that after a few days the board stopped working. So, we assigned an RMA number. When it arrived, techs put it on a bench and set up our POSTPlus diagnostic card, memory, power supply, etc, and when the power turned on it caught on fire."

Looks like those BH6/Intel-chipset based motherboards are a real fire hazard!

Wouldn't want one in my home or office, that's for sure.
