This is one sad tale indeed. And one that makes me want to reach inside my
Compaq and pull that little chip right out. Except for the fact that I
wouldn't be able to get anything done. Face it they have me over a barrel....

What Microsoftivellian plan is this? And what a lovely message to send to
average joe consumer on his p100, 28.8. I want to see the strategy meeting
that bore this. I would also like to see a complete list of the sites that
sell out because I question the benefits of advertising on them. I need to
speak to everyone, not just the select few wealthy, technically savvy
individuals.

Perhaps Intel's next publicity stunt could be to buy the post office,
delivering mail to an intel-determined-acceptable tax bracket. After all,
not just EVERYONE should be able to read their mail....
