Does this processor fail often? If so I wonder what the failure mode is?

Barry, you already know this but maybe it's time for me to come out of the

I AM THE GERMAN TEN-TEC DISTRIBUTOR.
Actually Spiderbeam is, through its daughter company Appello, but I am

officially that was the only information we had out of TN/CO.
