    I don't know how the inquirer has missed this... but this was done originally in 2002 by Trubador on tekheads forums... it got HardOCP'd at the time, and I'm rather dazed and confused over how the INQ could have missed out on this at the time of it hitting the net.

    YAWN, yea, its like people who play songs about "partying in 2000".

    You know he tried to sell those coins afterwards too :hehe: I even remember having the MSN convo with him (one of many people to im assuming) about attempting it.
    Someone try it on a prescott? please?

    It was OCS and Tek btw :p just thought id point that out </OCSfanboy>

    EDIT: What the hell? Taiwaneese department of physics?

    Yea, cause you could trust him as far as anyone could throw him. I recon he did do it though, he had lots of computer stuff and didnt really care what he did with it.

    Like said, if i had a prescott id be tempted to give it a go just to prove you can - not like i can kill it.

    Anyone remember this:

    "Our friends at THG made a video that crippled AMD sales a few years ago that showed you could kill your CPU when you remove the cooler. But things have changed. "

    I still think was the abesolute dumbest video THG could have ever made, IMO THG were always Intel fans.

    Anyways, I too remember that egg-frying web-page from a long time ago, now who's going to fry an egg on a Prescott? :D
