and i side on buggy hardware.  i suspect redhat does even more extreme
burn in tests.  it wouldn't be a bad idea to get redhat involved since
i'm sure they'd want to know.  there might be a way to work around that
hardware combo in the os.

still though, buggy hardware.

                         in that simplistic world-view liberals and
                         progressives are "us" and bush and bin laden are
                         "against us."
