And I've had an Intel P166 running for nearly a month, with no down time
that isn't kernel related (it crashed for 2.1.44, and NT4 died once when I
spinged myself) without any undue problems. No sig11, no unusual oopses
like the "Processor didn't respond to interrupt" oops for overheating in
NT before I replaced the fan. Destroyed a P100 chip trying P133 - didn't
see it overheat.
