Dan, Re: "He put the computer processing unit in the foyer of the store, went to his car, got what witnesses described as a “large sledgehammer” and pummeled it." Sledgehammer? This is obviously intentional symbolism indicating that it was an AMD CPU that drove this man to insanity. It's displeasing to hear that AMD has still not fixed their instability problems. <ggg> AMD should issue a recall immediately, IMO. <gggg> wbmw

"Wilke denies reports from a store employee that he used profanity." When further questioned by a reporter, Mr. Wilke did admit that he was hired by AMD's ad agency to stage the event. "See, the Sledgehamer smashes the Pentium4, and the Clawhamer pries the Celeron out of the socket and out of the cold dead hands of the clerk", he said with a boyish grin. He reiterated again to this reporter, that he at no time did he use any profanity, "And if that little pissant clerk says any difrunt, he's a lying little mtherfker", Wilke added, as he left. Kasey Marx, the manager of Gateway Country, 728 N. Casaloma Drive, where the incident occurred, declined comment, other than to say, "boy, Harpo, this is the last time we try to unload that old discontinued Athon inventory on some pigeon". wisinfo.com
