> Then why did INTC force prison for those that stole the worthless yellow wire?

Hutch said it was insignificant, which it is, about 7 million ounces out of 130 million ounces of demand, about 5%

It is not worthless, even at $260 per ounce 7 million ounces is still worth almost $2 billion dollars, but under 1% of INTC market cap or the $2.7B of Intel stock traded today <grin>

If the crooks were smart they would be stealing finished CPUS, which are worth more per ounce than gold.
