Let's have some fun with the GMP project prematurely deceased Amd
high-end 9950X CPU!

I will crush and burn the dead CPU on the 16 May unless Amazon or Amd
stops stonewalling and steps up to honour the warranty before that date.
I will record this event and link the film from the GMP website.


PS. The GMP project maintains a test environment of about 50 computers.
These computers have been paid for by me privately (with the exception
for the Internet-facing server which was donated, see the gmplib.org
web).  Getting a dud piece of hardware means that the CPU will not see
GMP support; I cannot afford getting replacements!
