if you're going to make the accusation that they're lying, at least provide a source - near as I can tell they are being as transparent as is reasonable.

Personally I think un-sourced statements from him are worth listening to.
- Aloha 9y agoMy general attitude is to presume good faith - both on intels part, and on the part of commenters online. I had no idea who he was till you raised the point with me - had he I identified some source for his assertions (even first had observation on a large number of systems), I probably wouldn't have said anything.
- loeg 9y agoNot that it's a source you can point to, but I have also heard the much stronger language — don't push this microcode — trickle out of Intel.
