They were sealed, and most likely contained either a vacuum or a specific gas. However, helium diffuses through everything at an astounding rate, and something about these particular parts made them especially susceptible to small amounts of helium. It probably changed the velocity of sound inside the device just enough to screw it up. Other brands of oscillator might also have been affected but if they merely shifted off frequency a bit no one would have noticed. It's also possible that these oscillators didn't stop either, but shifted frequency enough to cause the operating system to become alarmed and/or confused. -- John Hasler jhasler@newsguy.com Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI USA
