Dear Hmaly:

Of course THG didn't mention that RIMMs catch fire when their heatspreaders are removed and that a simple 3.3V AGP board can destroy all i850 and i845 based motherboards. He is really trying to not put Intel into a bad light. Of course, he is not succeeding because Intel keeps shooting itself in the foot and some stray shots hit his too. Besides, I have seen a DELL Xeon system that caught on fire. A server with 4 Xeons in it. So Intel based systems do start on fire.
