Don't think that Tom's didn't want exactly that to happen either...

Normally with an Athlon the computer would just shut down when it got too hot, I know as I've tried it before. I started an old computer we have with an Athlon 1700 with no heatsink on, and within 15s it shutdown. That box still works, I have linux on it running 24/7 now. What happened in those tests is they used a motherboard that didn't support that feature. VIA sucks.

Also notice that the Intels still have their IHS while the Athlons had theirs removed.
