Tenchu, Well you may know the answer to the question of how many Intel engineers does it take to screw in a ligtbulb.

Why do you need to know?

Bill, <how many Intel engineers does it take to screw in a ligtbulb.>

Just one, if you don't include:

- The engineers who verify that the lightbulb is screwed-in properly.

- The managers who come up with a project plan, including progress milestones.

- The committee of bean-counters who come up with the cost/benefit analysis of screwing in the lightbulb (vs. getting a candle or flashlight.)

- The people who ask for a post-mortem from the engineer who screwed in the lightbulb, including what the engineer did right and did wrong, and how he or she could do the job better, faster, and cheaper in the future.

- The AMDroids who think the lightbulb screwed in by the Intel engineer is just "smoke-n-mirrors."
