Intel Goes Open Source Crazy
,----[ Quote ]
| From all indications, Intel is taking open source seriously.

| To be truthful, there's a lot more open source that Intel has been working
| on. This is just the most recent stuff. If you want to keep up with it, a
| good place to start is the Open Source Technology Center.

| These vendors often want a quiet private discussion, because in a
| quiet private discussion they can continue to dismiss the requests and in
| the end do absolutely nothing. They do not want a noisy public
| discussion, because then they look bad. But they DESERVE TO LOOK BAD,
| because they are being bad to those who bought their hardware!

| By withholding, Intel is being an Open Source fraud.

|
| So let's win back the rights to run the hardware we purchased.
