NVIDIA Uses Cartoons to Harass Intel

,----[ Quote ]
| The site is especially critical of CEO Paul
| Otellini.  A recent post features a cartoon
| with a cross-eyed Otellini denying using
| "bribery, coercion and kickback relations" to
| try to corner the market.  The site has a
| rather humorous disclaimer informing readers
| that it "is not provided, sponsored or endorsed
| by Intel Corporation."
