Well, when AMD starting coming down on Intel really hard (performance wise) they pushed out the 1.13's a bit too early (May have only been producing 1.08-1.1GHz silicon, the extra 30-50mhz pushed it over the edge in some cases). Anyway, lots of P3-1.13's were crashing left and right. Intel ended up recalling them of course. I don't recall AMD ever doing such a thing. :)
