SCUMbria - Re: "The 1.13GHz release was not a minor technical screw-up. It was the single worst product release I have ever seen in this industry."

It was a minor screw up technically.

It damages Intel's reputation - no argument there - but the impact on Intel financially is minimal. Heck - you still can't even find AMD 1.1 Gig ThumperTurd PCs at retail - so maybe that is a screw up also.
