I thought it said AMD weren't affected? I still don't like AMD processors.   :disapp:

Not the first time Intel has screwed up.  :confused: Back in 1994, the original Pentium processor had a design flaw which caused some certain calculation to have incorrect result.

That's not true - I called you but you were indisposed. Your maid said you were suffering from a bad code.
