I once knew a guy who bought a really cheap PC with an AMD CPU in it.
Despite the fact that the power supply was underpowered, and
everything else on the machine was just as cheap as possible, he
blamed the AMD chip for all of the problems the PC had.  To this day
he refuses to buy AMD CPUs, "because they don't work right" -- despite
the fact that millions of people use bzip2^H^H^H^H^H AMD chips every
day without any problem at all.
