None of your other machines are that particular machine, with that
particular (possible suspect) set of cpu/ram/disk oddities.

The only time you can consider one machine's problems to be representative
of a group of machines are when they are pretty much the same machine in
specifications/load/etc.  In your average geek household, this is rare.
