My Athlon 700 gave up the ghost today.
After a long life processing WU's and exploring mandlebrot sets. It was a
peaceful exit as it gave out a last
warning and shut itself down.
I think it was responsible for approxiamately 600 WU's.
Survivors include a lifelong friend Pentium II 400
and myself. it will be missed greatly.

I was given a 700MHz Athlon (Slot A) system because it wouldn't stay
up more than a few seconds. Virtually every large capacitor around the
CPU had overheated and leaked; a replacement motherboard brought it
right up.

If you're not interested in fixing it, I'll pay shipping for the corpse...
