Decades ago I visited a fellow Amiga user's house. He had an overclocked 68060 Apollo board.

He was so happy with the speed. Would not stop telling everyone, and talking about it. Yet as I watched him demo it, it rebooted every minute or so. Most unstable thing ever.

Sure it booted in 2 seconds, and he just went about his merry way, but.. what?! Guy could have still overclocked a little less and had stability, but nope.

Some overclockers are weird.
