CPU comes with sticker on heat spreader?

A few months ago I posted about a raised black rectangle, on my P4 2.4C, which I felt was hurting cooling performance, and since my PSU blew a few days ago I had time to take everything apart and check what's the deal with it. After I took all the AS5 off I rubbed it with some alcohol and I saw that it had writing. It said "Original Intel processor, bought at Lamir" in Hebrew. I took a sharp knife and scrapped that sticker off, leaving some scaring but that was unavoidable, I figured I could always lap my HS and was nowhere near as deep as the sticker was thick.

Now, someone point out for me the !diot who puts a sticker on the god damn heat spreader, gee thanks for not putting it under, on the die itself! It has engraved on it "Intel P4 2.4/800/512" but no, your sticker - that's fraud-proof...

Got a nice overclocked overvolted system to keep you warm at night? That's great. Guess I'll have to settle for a woman...

I'd have to admit, p3man does have a good point.

Is your system stable enough you'd run your own life support on it? ---mine is. Soyo KT333 + AXP 1900+
