I'm currently restoring a P4 3.0E HT s478 (I know I should kill it with fire before it lays eggs, but can't help it 😀 ), and while researching on the subject I've discovered this very funny episode that I missed back in the day. AMD marketing department hitting in the jugular 🤣 :

"You've read about it. You've heard about it from friends and colleagues. Now you have the opportunity to be one of the select few to have the Prescott Survival Kit ..."

"Oven mitt to protect you from the heat generated by the Prescott processor ..."

"Real cute and impressive USB fan just enough to dry your sweat when your temp monitoring programme is beeping like crazy ..."

"Ear plugs to block the noise generated by the Prescott cooling fans ..."

"A CD to back up your files (currently shipping versions of Prescott do not have virus protection technology enabled) ..."

"Please enjoy the kit in the humorous spirit in which it is intended. Proceeds from the survival kits will be used to purchase fans for low-income elderly to help cool off during the hot summer months."
