> Although very few people would ever come across the bug, Intel allowed every processor to be exchanged. No matter if you were a gaming consumer or a giant corporation using coprocessor-heavy software.
Initially they only wanted to exchange CPUs if this bug was likely to significantly affect you. I had to prepare a letter describing our use of AutoCAD to get a replacement CPU ordered. As the media seized on the bug and it became more widely known they revised the policy to update everyone.
