The Sun was in a relative quiet period for most of those 15 years. Intel removed ECC from the consumer products to keep businesses from buying them --they didn't count on an entire generation of Computer Scientists being wiped out in the dot-com crash and the replacements getting lucky while not knowing any better.

But keep down votin' --love it!
