FDR

flynerd:

Dont let the scorched appearance fool you - the FDR is tough, I got to see them being built at the L3 factory in Sarasota, the steel "pot" the memory chips live in is well insulated and built to be cooked - rated as "50,000 BTU/sq. ft./hr. for 60 min. at 1100° C; 10 hrs. at 260° C"...so I expect it will be okay.
