Intel finds Sandy Bridge chipset design flaw, shipments stopped and recalls beginning -- Engadget

I never thought that Sand was the best thing to build a bridge out of...

But yeah - this sucks.

Just to clarify - it's not the Processors, it's the Chipset.

You wouldn't think sand is the best, but all processors are still using silicon cores... Which is sand basically, lol.

I heard about this last night. It's a little odd that this didn't get caught in R&D, but at least intel is handling it well.

Graphite even has a *similar* carbonite structure to diamond, and looks a bit better than coal
