"But they're perfectly happy to use anything at all as fear, uncertainty and doubt in the marketplace, and patents is just one thing where they say, 'Hey, isn't this convenient?

But the source said they were unaware whether any alternative bid was in the offing.'"

LHoAugustus writes "Linux Hardware has just posted another review. This is a follow-up to last week's article which covered the processor details and impact on software. In the new article, Linux Hardware looks at a system configuration based on Intel's new Core 2 Extreme QX9650 and Core 2 Extreme QX9770, and benchmarks the processors to find out just how well they perform under Linux. These processors are compared to the last generation top dog and to an overclocked processor at 4.0GHz."
