A fatal bug which has turned up in all Pentium II processors, and apparently cannot be fixed, threatens to bring an end to computing as we know it.

In a special session of the Supreme Court, called to resolve the crisis, Chief Justice Hamilton Burger said, "If computing is eliminated, then there can't be a Starship Trooper website, and that's a threat to national security and the economy," and he immediately ordered a buncha U-2s to go drop nuclear warheads on Iraq, just in case.
