They are just another company making software, and they happen to have the biggest market share. Why? Not because they're evil and sacrifice cats - it's because their operating system is the easiest and best to use, as evidenced by the entire fucking world"

269 2009-04-29.txt:22:20:00: <ehird> Bytemark seems to load quite fast from the uk (since they're a uk company) and do ipv6, so that's the main competitor to prgmr for me atm

274 2009-05-04.txt:01:30:03: <pikhq> AMD's existence for most of the company's history *has* depended on being cheaper than Intel chip, so *shrug*.

275 2009-05-06.txt:05:08:27: <pikhq> And the company ceases to exist.

282 2009-05-11.txt:17:01:04: <AnMaster> I never said no big company would. Since I knew Apple used to. Though I probably said it was risky and I couldn't see why they did it. AND provided warrandy

286 2009-05-14.txt:23:49:37: <ais523> nah, the entire company of Intel lives inside my computer
|

287 2009-05-14.txt:23:52:28: <ais523> yes, even if it is an improvement, it's not the sort of thing a company does when they're doing well

288 2009-05-15.txt:18:12:21: <ehird> Cons: price and the company who makes it

289 2009-05-15.txt:18:12:22: <ehird> Other Thoughts: stop and think seriously think about where intel gets their new technology from............... AMD. Intergrated memory controller and 64 bit technology both comes from AMD so for those who bash said company well your r-tarded. AMD holds the patents on the new Technology Intel uses and intel is trying to cancel AMD's right to make x86 cpu's so that means AMD pulls those rights from Intel so all of you who jumped aboard the i7 boat will sin
