"There is just no way to trust the answer now. I or my company will not purchase pentiums untill this bug (and another timing bug) are worked out. Maybe we don't do floating point stuff on them right now, but who's to know what that PC is going to be running later…" Actually, all you have to do is run the same problem on a non-Pentium as a check. In two or three months, Intel should have caught up on the demand for replacement CPU's. But I sure wouldn't buy another Pentium without checking to make sure it had the corrected CPU.
