Hey Guys,

Just wanted to bring something to your attention. I have worked for Intel and now work for Soyo. Defective CPU's and Motherboards are not the manufactuers fault. Its mainly the person that installs it. When you are even moving your leg or hands your generating static, and that is enough to kill a CPU. Carpet is the worst location. I build computers and I fried two CPU's why? I built the computers on the soft carpet :) I started to build them outside in my backyard on the ground (grounded) with bare feet and I have never had a defective CPU or Memory or Motherboard again. Let me just note to you fellow people, dont be careless, Static Free please! Saves you a lot of headache. :D

Blaming chipzilla is fun though and why not everyone blames
AMD for stuff too. If you can accept resposibility for your own
actions please raise your hand? I salute Hackinguru for his honesty and ability to accept his own mistake. I make mistakes
daily and have a wife to tell me so. lol
