Did you notice that early this year Intel dropped the guarantee on most of their processors from 1-3 years to 30 days? You have described Intel as reaching into the bag of tricks to increase processor speed. And I agree with this. One of the side effects of many of the tricks is to reduce processor life. Therefore, Intel reduced guaranteed life of the processor. But is it so bad that Intel needed to only guarantee their product for only 30 days!?!? Not according to intel's Web Page: support.intel.com Can you please point me to the link that verifies your statement that intel has reduced their warranty from 3 years to 30 days? Thanks. SemiconEng
