Can't remember who, but they asked about what hardware I had dropping out
of cupboards!  As most of you know the term "users" is a misnomer....it
should be "abusers".  I buy returned goods and regrade them or have them
replaced under warranty - so if your interested this is what I have at the
moment. If you want to know the regrading methods basically this: people
try to overclock or flash gfx cards, mobo's, cd-roms, etc or just plain do
not JRTFM!  I reflash the original BIOS's as appropriate or read the
manual and document the "quirks" we all know and love in hardware.
