it showed that marketing can be so sucky and lame.

""Britney Spears, Miley Cyrus and Susan Boyle would recommend the Xeon 5500 servers for Economic Stimulus" proclaims the headline of a shameless search engine courting Intel Blog."

Who are they appealing too?

The poeple who buy Xeon 5000's, would they really be swayed by this bullcrap?

PMS...

Buy some chocolate!

I mean... I actually understood most of what he said.

Slyvie has been drinking the AMD Koolaide again.

Just read any of the recent articles, she would not know objectivity if it hit her on her arse.

Sylvie if you want to appear cerdible you have to stop whining and actually do some research and real journalism.

Honestly to put this up as news shows a despiration to bash a company that borders on the same blind fanaticism that Mac fanbois show.

From your whiny little article about being treated bad by Asus at CES to this you have shown your lack of professionalism at every turn.

i like turtles

Silvie, if you want to share your thoughts just put comment inside the blogpost. I think it is unethical if you spread your thought to become news like this. And, intel's people blogging like a closed corporate blogging. Unlike, people at AMD with their blog with RSS feed that you can share to everyone in the net.

A blog comment from someone who lives and breathes their job somehow segues into Intel looking for news? Now this is the inqu. which has deteriorated for years, but this is a new low, from a 'writer' who neither has the flair of the late magee or the brains of pabst. it's a pity, the inq used to combine truth with spin and it was somewhat funny, now you all just look pathetic.

I was very pleased to learn that Ms. Amy W. highly recommends using Nehalems 5500 processors to speed up rehabilitation process. Well done Inqas! Marvelous piece of journalism, keep up good work...

You do realize it is the IBM fab club that is talking up 45, 32, 28 and not Intel?!?

Intel is not talking these up because A) there is no 28nm at Intel, it is a half node for foundries B) Intel doesn't need to talk up 32nm as they are already sampling it and will be selling CPU's on it by year's end.

The ironic thing is you are condemning Intel by mistake for what IBM/AMD has been doing.

HaHa, thought so...

Goodbye from the past :)

Intel has been unethical, immoral and down right border-line legal for some time now.. Anyone old enough to remember the whole PENTIUM hidden CPUID fiasco in the BIOS in the mid 90's that let your pc be identified on the internet?? I don't know if they're still doing it now since I haven't owned intel cpu since Pentium III.

If any of them does even have a clue of what a processor is like. I figure them holding it and asking: "What is this green thing with the metal cap and shinny golden dots? It's heavy!"
Any way, CTOs and CIOs who gives them any credibility for choosing servers, should be fired immediately...

Intel is an Immoral company full of proud geeks and fat cats who are prepared to do anything to win. I hope they get fleeced hard by the antitrust, patent stealing, misinformation’s, product misrepresentation, etc cases against them.

For 200: theINQ HITS in One Day, & Paying Off Samsung '8 Loss, You Might Get Larrabee by Overnight, Here: went so deep into details that only real programmer understood it. (Obviously, Charlie)

According to Abrash the theoretical power of Larrabee is bigger than one Teraflop which means more than 1.000.000.000.000 operations per second. Thus the chip reaches areas currently occupied by graphics chips from Ati and Nvidia. So it will be interesting to see how the competitors react.(Bringing Race Neck, Neck & Neck as It nears Comp Max)

IT will also be interesting to hear what Mark Rein from Epic Games has to say when Intel starts using Larrabee as an integrated graphics chip. After all Epics programmer genius and Chief developer of the Unreal Engine Tim Sweeney has, according to Abrash, been involved in the development of Larrabee and its 100 new commands. It is pure speculation what effect this will have on the compatibility of the current and future versions of the Unreal Engine and Larrabee. But it actually it would be strange if Sweeney would intentionally see to it that the Unreal Engine wont consort with Larrabee. Well, Even If Larrabee isn't Hot Swap Item today, Get Used To 100 NEW Instructions. Larger Increase than Years of Previously added instructions, So BIG Help. ST Drashek

Only recently Intel presented a Larrabee Wafer and apparently the first samples are ready

or the Tom from the old Toms Hardware ...

or

a Mike Magee ...

or

a Sander Sasson

Good stuff.

I call THAT a bad hair day!

Me thinks that Inquirer is looking for a cat fight... My $$ is on Intel...

Dear Intel,

How bout you work on getting us some TRUE nextgen product, instead of this 45,32,28 BS.

huh huh huh

Thought so.

Hello from the future.

I've said this before - all spice, no news from this author recently.

Desperate? The author's the desperate one having to dig up nonsense like this.

Intel has been desperate and unscrupulous for close to 30 years. Wait until they have to fork over $50 billion to AMD for violation of anti-trust laws. THEN you'll see some real Spinning.
