"I see this Bapco thing as a team of semi-technical people trying to do the right thing"

I appreciate your sincere opinion. Your opinion is wrong.
The whole scandal has nothing to do with data, presented
or not. This is a big business, strictly business, Intel
style.
And yes, those people did the right thing, right for
those who harbors them:

cs.wisc.edu

"FOR MORE INFORMATION:

Period.

It is all crystal clear, no need to apologize for lost
ballots and dimpled chads, it is useless. Unless a
court order would allow for deep search of emails
and meeting minutes.

"Bottom-line, could AMD have been part of bapco? Did they apply...were they denied?"

burn2learn, Re: "I see this Bapco thing as a team of semi-technical people trying to do the right thing based on the input that was available from all members. All members bought off on something based on the facts presented."

Interesting analogy. Thanks for your point of view.
