Rumor has it that Gene Buckle may have mentioned these words:
I'm surprised that Intel didn't try to blame the Pentium FDIV bug on that...
It still cracks me up that according to Intel I'm a 48,000-year-old man... ;-)

What do you do when Life gives you lemons,
and you don't *like* lemonade?????????????
The Stores in
a certain college where I once worked insisted on checking
every delivery to make sure it was complete. I couldn't undertand why one
or two ICs in several orders were faulty, until I realised they took them
all out of the tubes to count them :-(
Intel or AMD had a similar problem (huge yield problems) because of an
overzealous clerk counting silicon wafers by hand. By *touching* them.
