Intel has been very good about disclosing this problem and attempting
very expensive rectification.  A few systems have not been recalled
because it was determined that the bug (something to do with the SATA
interface) would not affect those systems.

(I still have a pair of P60 processor chips, one with the infamous
FDIV bug and one without.  I got rid of the boxes last year but kept
the processors.  The FDIV bug fiasco taught Intel some lessons.)
