>>I'm so happy to have went for AMD since 2003... And that was because of Intel being all too compliant with then request to deanonymize its chips, i.e. be a big help to Big Brother.

I didn't have much choice before that... Didn't actually have my own machines, I'd just take one home from the office, and then had to backup everything quickly when we sold it... Then I'd get a better one with the next shipment. Comes handy when you're a co-founder, always have the latest and greatest, but comes with that restriction - pick among what we sell. Though I remember we had a few by that third manufacturer... whoevr was it, Cirrus or something.
