All: WSJ article. If this article appears in the paper, we might get some more downward pressure in Intel tomorrow. I didn't like the fact that Intel seems to be out of the running for 15M unit TCI contract. I had thought they reached some type of agreement a few weeks back. Comments?

Hi Paul, thanks for the article. Now I will post this one and then I have a couple of questions.

headlines.yahoo.com

Not being a techie this is getting quite complicated. gg. My questions concern the following paragraph:

"Instead of selling that 740 directly to PC makers as it does with microprocessors, Intel will sell to independent hardware vendors such as........Those buyers might add value through software, then sell the chip to PC makers".

First of all: What kind of software would those vendors add?
and second: Would this be temporary until Intel puts it on a chip themselves?

Is this article related to those vendors? Or are they talking about other cos.?

Thanks
