Sorry, wrong. CPU throttling as a means to reduce power consumption on laptops has been around quite a while, and the technology is making its way into desktop systems. More power consumption -> more heat dissipation. http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/intel-thermal-features/index.html So this is not at all far-fetched, although I've never had personal experience of any equipment behaving as close-to-the-edge as Cesar relates. --gvc Yahoo!
