Gene, "That's why Manufacturers Representatives and Authorized Distributors exist... The issue is not about Intel's requirement that a company sign an NDA to receive advanced technical information on unreleased product." Your understanding of PC industry seems to be one-sided. You sound like a chip sale folk. This is not about any "advanced" information, this is about current functionality and, more important, bug fixes and work arounds. All critical aspects of current Intel/Wintel PC platform is covered under related NDAs. Mom and PoP cannot design an AMD or Intel-compatible platform without NDA, unless spending years of inverse engineering, which renders all this useless. - Ali
