    If Mr Krzanich ducks a bullet on the insider trading investigation someone might suspect he has links to The Orange Man - I'll say it before someone else does lol.

    It's funny how AMD doesn't have such a problem. Have they in the past though? Perhaps Intel are becoming like Micro$oft with their slapdash fixes...

    AMD had reboot problems on older CPUs, but that was due to a Microsoft update.
