That's not where I was going. Socket 7 CPUs are supposed to be able to
run at up to 158F at 150C are you doubting that it would fry? Let's face
it, if your processor is running at 302F it's more like the temp inside
an oven vs. a computer. If your computer could withstand 302F temps. why
use heatsinks/or fans at all?

"brains on holiday" I don't know where you pulled that one from. I did
however find your article entertaining and inteligent. Possibly one
could say that it was slightly out of place though.
