There's a great AVI on www.tomshardware.com showing what happens when the
heatsink fails (i.e. falls off) on a 2Ghz P4, a 1GHz PIII and a 1.4Ghz and
1.2Ghz "Palomino" Athalon...

....I hate to say it but the Intels were protected against the sudden
temperature rise and either clocked down massively or hung but survived ...
the Athalons however failed *BIG TIME* and smoked reaching 360deg C or
more!

It's the funniest 10Meg download you'll have seen in a while...
