Jim, Re: P4 systems BURNING UP. LOL!! Paul better check the junction temps on the P4.


There is now some talk of some systems (more than a few, less than alot) failing to POST. Reason unknown.
There is also a nice story of one system nearly catching fire.


Hmmm, we can't have the home furnace actually catching fire. This is BAD NEWS for the Northeast, given the heating oil shortage. Let's hope that Intel can ship these P4 systems by January. Maybe the OEMs could add an asbestos layer to the case? Or some of those heat tiles from the shuttle...
