Paul,

Where do you get these cockamamy ideas that Intel "Forces" customers?

Do you have proof, affidavits, tape recordings, court records or are you just jealous and making it all up?


I think I touched a nerve.

Do you have proof?

Yes. If they don't run the commercials, they have to pay higher prices for the chips.

Saul Dingle,

In a way he's right. The PC biz is VERY competitive. If you don't take the co-mktg dollars you're screwed. Just imagine the competitive advantage one pc maker would have over the other if they were paying a lower price for the cpu. One of the highest cost component's of a computer. Intel does't use a gun, they use something more powerful, competition. But you, gearhead, have trouble with biz concepts.

I knew you'd put your foot in your mouth sooner or later.

DMF, we reveiw all the ads that are submitted for reimbursement through the Intel Inside Co-op Ad program. If they don't adhere to the guidlines then they don't get reimbursed.

Thanks for the heads up.
