JF, the normal job of an Intel sales rep is to sell Intel based computers to retail stores, not to push products to customers. Intel, AMD and even Maytag often have sales reps in the stores for special demonstrations to consumers, but they are clearly identified and revealed as employees of their respective companies. For any of these to have employees pushing their products incognito is, IMO, a breach of consumer trust. The consumer deserves to know that these guy's primary allegiance is to their employer, not the consumer. If I find such as person in a Circuit City or Best Buy, I would immediately complain to the manager, whether he is an AMD employee or an Intel employee. Petz
