Do you know if it was purchased "right around" when it launched? I'm
wondering if it's possible they used pre-production parts for some

The reason for this line of inquiry is if this is what we would have
considered pre-production silicon, it might be more appropriate to flag
the CPU accordingly and ignore these MCEs.
