Hi Mike, I found this comment of yours interesting, wanted to learn more:

And Intel has a very well
established record in customer support. But understand that the customers are
Compaq, IBM, HP, Dell,...


Do you mean those companies are "class" companies and therefore easier to deal with? Actually, I've had experience with some seemingly "class", big companies that were real ----heads to work with. I think what you may also be implying is that Intel's present day computer type customers are a lot different from what they'll be dealing with in the new venture.

One of the articles I read about it said Intel would not actually be building hardware for the physical layer. Brought back the networks class from a couple years back! Time to learn more new stuff.

Regards,

Tony

Mike, wouldn't the customers be ISPs, portals, and ITs, who in turn provide to the end-user/consumer? But if it's direct service to the consumers, well, then yes, I understand what you're saying, which is exactly where my concern was -- in the PR, it wasn't definitely clear to me who they would directly service: the ISPs, portals, ITs of websites, or... the consumer.
