Hi all,

I'm sorry if this has been asked, but I can't get any hits on a search of the site. I heard something before that the P4s required a specially shielded case to reduce EMI. can anyone point me to a link expanding on this?

Thanks

if it's not on fire, it's a software problem.

That is what we here at Tom's like to refer to as "Bullsh*t". Nope, not true.

Line the inside with neural-net shielding, and use only CAT 47 cables for all devices. Then dip the case into melted lead, (to protect your eyes from those painful emissions) paint with your choice of bright enamel colors, and buff to a soft luster.

Afterwards, to be completely safe, <i>always</i> lunge towards the power button in the advent of an overhead nuclear explosion. You may be all that's left of the Internet.

(Sorry ... I just had to be a smart-ass. Too funny. ROTFLMAO!)
