Intel has a good history of recalls and replacements of their motherboards and processors. The Pentium FDIV bug comes to mind immediately, as does the recall of motherboards with the faulty 820-series memory translation hub.
- pacificmint 12y agoActually, Intels behavior with the FDIV bug was originally anything but good. They downplayed the bug and refused to recall them. Then they started offering replacements if you could prove that the bug affected you. It wasn't until the whole thing turned into a giant PR disaster that they started a generous exchange program. That whole affair is basically the reason that Intel is much more forthcoming with errata these days.
