It irritates me to have to buy a &amp;quot;server&amp;quot; CPU if I want ECC on my desktop (which I do) and it isn&amp;#x27;t that many gates! Its not like folks are tight on transistors or anything. And on my 48GB desktop (currently using a Xeon CPU) I&amp;#x27;ll see anywhere from 1 to 4 corrected single bit errors a month.&lt;p&gt;For things like large CAD drawings which are essentially one giant data structure, flipping a bit in the middle of them somewhere silently can leave the file unable to be opened. So I certainly prefer not to have those bits flip.</text></comment>
