The Original Northwood Pentium 4

Information: 
Made by Intel - Also known as the Northwood

Hi, my name is R.J. Lorimer, and I own a 2.66GHz Northwood Pentium IV.

“Hi R.J.”.

Bad AA jokes aside, I want to review one of the most disappointing computers I have ever bought, my last desktop before my new 3GHZ Core 2 Duo. My Northwood almost pushed me away from Intel for good.

The Good: 
It's prevalent, parts are *still* available, and it was relatively fast for the price.
The Bad: 
Umm... third degree burns?
Conclusion: 
This thing is so hot, I'm surprised the earth doesn't start revolving around my Antec case.
