Re: - I guess LOCKING UP a PC doesn't corrupt data does it?

The only production PCs with lockup problems shipped recently have either had 1.13 PIIIs (lockups due to clock speed), 820 chipsets PIIIs (lockups due to MTH), P4 systems (lockups due to PCI bus compatibility).

Initial 760 systems were sold as 100/200 systems and there have been no problems (that I've ever heard of - and with you on the thread, they'd have been reported hourly). PIIIs were sold with 1.13GHZ parts, others were sold with the MTH, and P4s were sold with the PCI bus problem (have they fixed that yet? Or is Intel continuing to ship parts that are unreliable even when run within spec?).
