As I had several additional replies of interest, I wanted to add to the prior
summary. Thanks to:

Tim Chipman <chipman@ecopiabio.com>
Richard Skelton <Richard.Skelton@infineon.com>
Drew Skinner <dskinner@blueprint.org>

Tim reminded me of the infamous e-cache problems many Sun systems suffered a few
years back. (Not the case here.)

Drew noted a problem with E4000/4500 heat sinks coming unglued.

And Richard asked how we identified the bad DIMM. My bad here, as I should've
included this in my first summary. We rooted back through last week's messages
file and found correctable errors referencing the specific DIMM.

Thanks, again.
