Paul,

There were a number of articles posted yesterday which clearly identified the bug as a Windows 95 bug.

What is the point of all this mindless discussion about the quality of K6-2?

1. It is not an AMD bug.
2. It is fixable in Windows 95
3. It is not exhibited in Windows 98 or NT.

There is no meat on this bone. Quit chewing on it.

Re: "Those poor K6-2 customers who probably lost valuable data when their brand new 350 MHz system crashed on them."

How are they going to lose data when the computer only crashes very early as it boots?

This is not an application stopping freeze (like with the Xeon bug) as you well know.

Stop spreading your FUD.

Kevin
