That's a pretty bold claim - if it's accurate, can you point at the government regulation that precludes a class action lawsuit? I would assume it's something in the T&C or EULA for the hardware rather than a regulation?

Bold but sadly correct. The industry runs on misdirection and deception.

If users knew better, we'd have the equivalent of another Pentium FDIV bug.
