Re: [cobalt-users] What cpu is in a cobalt raq4 - screaming lawsu its

["Adam Holt" <mediadezines@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the sound advice Brandon, but how many of these cpu's go bad in
one server company, I know of three others now that have the same situation,
and Im sure I'll find more of them.  In any event, good advice, I will call
cobalt on monday with my mac address and see what they have to say.

I sincerely hope that my suspisions are unjustified, then I can just scream
that they need to move me onto a 4i that has a 450mhz processor in it,
instead of anything more drastic.
