The user quoted European law in order to persuade the online retailer that the goods he had bought in good faith were no longer fit for his purposes because of the enforcement of firmware update 3.21, which meant that users who chose to keep the Other OS functionality would lose the ability to play the latest games or connect to the PlayStation Network."

But intel doesn't want this. By doing this intel would be telling every software company that if they use an intel compiler they must ignore 20% of the market. It will be very little time before a new compiler is used that can compile for all x86 again.
