Subject: So um, who here works for Intel?

I got an e-mail tonite.  From Intel.  That's a first........

Perhaps there are eyes on us everywhere!

It was from a "Systems Engineer", telling me how to setup a 2.53Ghz machine
*correctly* and that I should have no problems "..beating any AMD CPU on the
market, overclocked or not, running any "optimized" program.."

I checked the e-mail, it's valid.  He stated that he would "..appreciate my
cooperation in keeping his name, and this e-mail, as quiet as possbible.."
Well, I guess this is as quiet as I can keep it.  ;)

Aaron, he told me they were hitting 300+ fps with the setup he described to me
in the e-mail, using a GeForce3 Ti500.  He told me using a GeForce4 Ti4600 or
the Quatro4 would probably net gains near 30+ fps.  You getting anywhere near
this number?

He also told me that P4's have always been geared towards multimedia.  And that
it didn't hurt his feelings that AMDs were beating the P4s in "chess
applications".  He stated, and I quote, "If AMDs audience is those who require
good numbers running their chess applications, well, that's good news for
Intel."

I have no doubts this guy is for real.  And I will setup this system as he has
"instructed".  Whoever turned me in, thanks!  ;)

To quote a movie, "We now have corporate sponsorship."  :D
