Doug, <the athlons i've built are much more reliable than..>
How do you measure the reliability?

<Gateway uses cheap power supplys..>
Yes they probably do, they are under market
margin pressure. But "cheap" does not necessary
mean "unreliable" if engineered correctly.
A company cannot afford to sell systems if customer's
return is too high - they will be out of business
soon.
