- cornholio 9y agoPresumably, by visiting an agreed service center in your western, sue-happy country, or sending the computer to the nearest one on your expense in the rest of the world. If the CPU is not replaceable or no longer in service, you would get a voucher for the lost value of the CPU/computer that is now 30% slower. Something like 10-20$ for anything older than 3 years, so most people won't bother. If Apple can do it, surely Intel will manage, but it will cost them in the billion order of magnitude, a non-negligible fraction of their yearly profit.
