CPU for what were the widest selling personal computers. Unlike previous CPUs that Intel made‚ the 486Dx and Pentium chips included a floating point unit (FPU). Previous Intel CPUs did all their arithmetic using integers; and Pentium chips have these instructions built into the chip‚ in their FPUs. This made them much faster for intense numerical calculations‚ more complex‚ and more expensive. The problem for Intel was that all Pentiums manufactured until sometime this fall had errors in the on-chip

Thomas Nicely a mathematics professor at Lynchburg College in Lynchburg VA made error public when he sent an e-mail to several colleagues. Nicely was using several computers to compute mathematical problems to prove they had enough power to do so. I believe Intel did not handle the problem correctly at all. Intel knowing that
