I've been annoyed at Intel for awhile, and I've been happily voting with my pocketbook by only buying AMD powered laptops. Latest Intel annoyance: consumer grade "Pentium Dual-Core" chips, which are basically Core 2 Duos without VT-x instructions, so they are 64 bit processors that can't run 64-bit VM's. OK, that's old news, but annoying nonetheless when you've got one you are trying to get work done on.
