Folks,

I can't tell you how many times I have told people with wierd operational
problems on an Apple II to push down their IC's in their boards.  They
still pop up out of their sockets with heat and usage.  If you are having
problems, power down and push the critters into their sockets.  You will
know what I mean when they pop back in, you can tell by the feel and sound
that they have popped up.  With all of the new systems, we tend to forget
this all too easily...
