#Despite several thousand phone calls a day, Intel continues to say that
#concern about the Pentium chip is overblown, that the glitch affects only
#those users performing certain highly complex mathematical calculations,
#and that the computer user would encounter it only once in 27,000 years of
#average use.

It's so very nice of Intel to tell us how much of what we're supposed to do
with their product. 

I just don't understand why Intel is addressing it this way; don't they
get it -- it's a _feature!_
