1. A method of testing a remote computer comprising:
- reading a line from said remote computer by a processing unit, said line capable of sending at least one result signal of the testing;
sending a fail signal from a logic device of said processing unit to a reporting device when no new result signal is read during any time period of a preselected length, wherein a timing clock is connected to the logic device; and
taking a fail action in an assembly line in connection with the remote computer in response to the fail signal, wherein said fail action includes controlling operation of a conveyor system.

14. A method of testing a computer system during assembly, comprising:
-
receiving, by a logic device of a processing unit, an indication of a result of an internal test performed in the computer system, wherein a timing clock is connected to the logic device;
sending a fail indication from the processing unit to a reporting device when a result indication is not received from the computer system within a predetermined time period; and
taking a fail action in an assembly line in connection with the computer system in response to the fail indication, wherein said fail action includes controlling operation of a conveyor system.
