Elmer - Re: "And it doesn't say it will run Intel processors, only "Intel Corp. semiconductors" I hope it's just poor reporting but it's odd." I agree. Paul

Elmer - I think I may know why WhassupYouth hates Intel so much !! We know he worked at IBM in wafer fab - I'll bet he was involved in IBM's Blue Lightning - their 486 that was supposed to be intro'ed at 100 MHz in 1991 or 1992. By the time IBM ever did get it out the door in 1993, It only ran at 75 MHz and Intel intro'ed the 486 DX4 at 100 MHz - followed by the Pentium, etc. WhassupYouth must have been responsible for that TOTAL IBM failure - and a shellacking by Intel ! He probably got "Gerstnered Out" when IBM was cleaning out the deadwood after Lou arrived! That WhassupYouth dude sure holds a grudge !
