<Your argument is that, because the bug is so serious, it must not be serious.> No, John, I'm saying that because the bug is so serious, the workaround must have already been implemented, or else we would have heard about this problem a while ago. After all, if Dell is willing to hold shipments of Coppermine-based desktops for a couple of days due to an obscure 1-in-10000 "boot hang," they would have certainly taken more drastic steps in order to deal with this "more serious bug."
