Systems problems are not that simple. Now we do not know if it is a true systems problem. The T-bird is part of a system.

Re: "Once again, pull the 1 GHz Tbirds from the flaky Gateway systems, and place each one in a variety of other systems based on various other motherboards. No problems = Tbird exonerated"

Not necessarilly. The new MBs could be producing some bus cycles or permutations of bus cycles that the other boards don't produce. I think it is very unwise to rule anything out when Gateway themselves say they don't know for sure what the problem is. It may very well NOT be the processor but you can't rule anything out until you find the root cause.
