    Okay....what's a tomato motherboard?

    How do you know the FET is getting too hot?

    What kind of cooling do you have?

    does this happen to be a Hothouse Tomato motherboard? If so, it's by design!

    sorry, couldn't help myself...

    Wow, that post contributed nothing. Sorry.
    I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

    I was going to say to that person, "Your motherboard is pizza!" but I held back, BC_programmer, but maybe I should have let it flow...

    1. "Pizza" here should be read as a humorous variant of "toast".

    2. zaccarious, don't bother!
