real question, what makes you want to support a company that's mostly rolled over all the staf? I mean as I say that I do the same for a baseball team... but... that seems different to me which is likely unfair :)
- Dalewyn 4y agoI owe my love for computers and thus who I am now to Intel (and Microsoft). The first ever computer I interacted with was a 386 or 486 of some description that my parents bought to crunch paperwork and other such computer things. Knowing my dad, I'm 99% certain it was an Intel CPU of some sort in there. It ran Windows 3.11 For Workgroups and the sheer possibilities I could see were mindblowing for me. The next computer, the first computer I got to have to myself (thanks mom, dad!) was an Intel Pentium. I think it was clocked at 166MHz? It ran Windows 95, I even installed it myself from like two dozen floppies. That really kicked off my love for computers. So when someone asks why I support Intel? It's because they were and are a fundamental part of who I am, I owe a great deal of my computing passion and who I am today to their passion for amazing computing hardware. My childhood would not have been what it was were it not for Intel (and Microsoft). In short, you could say there's an Intel Inside me.
