I heard that Thunder K7 was shipped with stale BIOS.

PS. You forgot to show the conclusion in bold font:

Updated Conclusion
Each individual Thunder K7 board seems to have its little quirks. After these problems were identified and fixed, we put the boards through massive testing, and they've stayed stable. We've put the boards through 100+ hour loops of Content Creation 2001 (Heavy on CPU/Memory/Disk Access), Quake III Arena (CPU/Memory/Video Card), and 3DMark 2000 (CPU/Memory/Video Card), and they've been rock solid.

Re: Is this the same company that makes these

If you read what fixed the problems, you'll find that he had a bad power supply, and set his jumpers backwards.

How about the company responsible for

820 3 RIMM data corruption problems

and the

840 MTH data corruption problems

and the

PIII 1.13GHZ erroneous calculation problems

and the

Xeon 900 lockup problems

and the

850 chipset PCI incompatibility problems

etc.
