Re: "Jim, What we need now is a test suite guaranteed to make use of this error placed on a site for all to use. It will be like the original flawed pentium...everyone and his dog wanted his money back as by then prices had fallen, even if they would never encounter the error in a lifetime of use, they all demanded their money back.
