I see... I hit hard INTEL... Again! And INTEL is NOT (at all) happy about
that, I can read between the lines. :-)

It is NOT matter of open dialogue with vendors. It is matter of direct

Sorry to be straight honest with you. The Truth here is the biggest victim.
But... It depends what your interests are, and how these interests convert,
convert into what?! ;-)

Anyway, all said IMHO!
