Well, you have to give it to Ed a well thought out article.

Regardless of who you support, it is nice to see OCF on the map for quality over quantity.

This one made me laugh really hard...

[FONT=Arial, Sans-Serif]To rework an old joke, Hector Ruiz goes back to a college reunion and boasts, "In 2007, I made AMD a $5 billion corporation." Someone asks, "What was it before that?" and a classmate now with Intel says, "A $10 billion corporation."[/FONT]

Before you scream bloody murder, Ed used to pan Intel just as hard when the had the Presshots and brothers in the oven...

Not quite true. If you check the archives, he was equally caustic about Intel and Wintel.

But then AMD have made bonehead mistake after mistake recently...

Yea he has given Intel some harsh words over the years but definitely more towards AMD.. And yes I guess AMD brought it on themselves.
