Pete, Had the object of Tom's unhappiness been an AMD part, rest assured that many on this thread would be far less understanding about the problems, and far less likely to assign blame to the reviewer. ;^)) And that is the understatement of the year! Scumbria

Petey - re: "Tom tried five different boards, one was MIA (Bad P/R in itself), one supposedly had the "fix" (Not something we like to hear), and the last three were test beds used in other reviews that have been positively pointed to before by those whining now. All failed at 1133 MHz and four ran at 850 MHz (MIA can't run at any speed but zero). (Paul: You jump on us if, the roles were reversed. So take your medicine and yell at the ultimately responsible party, Intel)" Anand tried two boards and they BOTH WORKED !! Sharky tried one board and it worked. Conclusion - the 1.13 GHz Pentium III is real and it works and Tom Pabst is clueless and has his nose stuck up Jerry Sanders' pants leg. Paul
