   Pentium PI Day

   I post this to the clax because we're assembly people who   
   may actually appreciate this:   
      
   In remembrance of the infamous Pentium FDIV bug... I thought   
   we could officially designate March 15 as "Pentium PI Day"   
   because in America we use the MM/DD form for dates, and it   
   would be 3/15 or 3.15 if you use a dot.   
      
   :-)  Happy Pentium PI Day!
