Tenchu Maybe we should start talking about our experiences with AMD? It would be good therapy. I personally know of people who have had death threats. They've been mugged in the parking lot, had their tires slashed. They've been beaten repeatedly by AMD goons and I know of many others who have had the same experiences. They're all too afraid to go to the police or the FTC/DOJ. What do you think they should do? People who have tried to speak up have disappeared....

Yep, and you can add this: I was given access to supermicro's system and motherboard data sheets, specifications, and manuals and told that all the products had been tested and ready for weeks, but that they couldn't sell any of the systems they'd designed and built because Intel had insisted that they wait. After Intel "let" them start selling products that supported AMD CPUs (and you do realize that such an action from a company with a 90% revenue share is illegal), they were still afraid to even link to, much less list, any AMD supporting products on www.supermicro.com (you had to hunt down "A+ Systems). Tony Soprano must have been very proud. Intel and the New Jersey garbage hauling mob - downwind, they both stink about the same.
