Copper Processor Conspiracy Theory?

Last week, we reported (“Update: Yes, It’s Copper… Maybe“) that the G3 processors inside Revision D iMacs were manufactured with a copper process, rather than the traditional aluminum process. It turns out we weren’t exactly right, according to our objective readers. A large number of Revision D iMac owners wrote in to say that their G3 processors were aluminum, not copper. But, a very small number of Revision D iMac owners noted that their processors were copper. Imperial conspiracy devised by Senator Jobs? Or could this have something to do with that Mexicali fire nearly two months ago? The NoBeige.com Mail Room is always open.
