Doug,

You keep this rhetoric up and people won't let you post here anymore. Selling out, indeed, and picking up Intel?

New Doug:

I'm starting to wonder if SUN will add Intel-based x86 servers to their lineup. They've always said that if Intel has a competitive part, they'll consider it... I wonder how sweet a deal they could get from Intel to do this, Intel motivated by the resultant PR blow to AMD. They could still position each line, saying they recommend Intel parts in 1S and 2S, and Opteron in 4S and 8S (and also 2S "depending on workload" or some such.)

Didn't they say they'd be launching a huge number of new x64 systems over the next 6 months?

Old Doug:

Stop spreading FUD.

Looks like Rahul @ Voodoo PC is hinting at the possibility of adding Intel to the desktop lineup in the future:

...Another company who has surprised me by their relatively “positive” reaction to my writing is Intel. Believe it or not they are trying to make things right by constantly keeping us in the loop of what we should expect in the coming months. I do have some concerns about their roadmap (which I will discuss in the following paragraphs) and only time will tell if these concerns are indeed valid.

Let me be clear to those who read my blog on a regular basis, I like Intel and I think they make great mobility products. In the future they hope to sway our opinions to believe in their entire product line - as far as I’m concerned seeing=believing, and if Intel produces I will call them on it...
