Michael - Re:"... pirating problem Intel faces..."

Intel has faced this problem for a long time.

As Intel gets smarter, the thieves get even smarter.

Intel has recently discussed some new strategy - embedded codes on chip that will determine clock speed, but implementing it will not be easy.

With the continuing shortage of high speed Pentium/Pentium MMX and Pentium Pro chips (200 MHz), you can count on this counterfeiting problem (re-marking slow parts to faster speed designations) to EXPAND.

Capitalism works!
