Jona, really? mechanical devices?
Then why are RAM checking programs designed to run consecutive read and
writes to memory
address' over and over so to detect errors that only occur in certain
patterns or with extreme usage
and higher temperature that comes from extreme ram usage?

So memory intensive programs (photshop, 3d apps etc) DON'T tax memory is
what you are saying?

I have fixed quite a few blue screen of death problems and most were memory
related but then again
I haven't been designing and building PC's since 1978 like you. :)
what did you start with the Zeus, what was that kit computer called that was
out in 1980?
