"ole mikey baloney. ...It's all propaganda and you know it." That article was not only a propaganda, Mikey was blatantly lying - no Dell customers, especially their main, corporate customers, would ever open sealed Dell box which is always sold with unseparable service (one year at least). Even to upgrade to little more memory you are supposed to call Dell service since the case is intruder-protected, and in some cases will refuse to boot without special BIOS intervention. BTW, when I recently tried to upgrade my office Optiplex GX110 to a brand new, Kingmax flip-chip 256MB stick, the system even did not post, so I had to add a second old crappy 128 stick to make the upgrade. Is not it a "fragile compatibility" issue <ggg>? - Ali

Grub - You are a slimy hypocrite - Re: "Yes, some obscure, brand new chipsets ( like SIS and ALI ) may have growing pains when they are first introduced but the Intel versions of those same chipsets have similar problems. And this has nothing to do with the quality of AMD cpus anyway." Where is your blasting of BAN BAN LIAR DAN - when he brings up 2 1/2 year old problems with INTEL CHIP SETS - notably the MTH translator? He casts aspersions on Intel's CPUs through these blasts on Intel's (long since recalled) MTH chip set - yet you remain CONSPICUOUSLY SILENT on the matter. Yet according to you, and chip set instabilities for a MAD AthWiper are acceptable. Yes - you're a stinking hypocrite.
