Z,
You don't think Intel execs would close ranks for even a few weeks around someone that was entrenched and well-connected and said something stupid?
Nope. Intel is rather paranoid about this sort of stuff.

Even some of the gaffes that Andy Grove and Paul Otellini said back in the 90's became lessons on what NOT to say.

This was in stark contrast to the flamboyant Jerry Sanders, who said a lot of things that in hindsight were just plain stupid. Like "real men have fabs." Really, Jerry? Where are AMD's fabs today?
