Actually, it's classic competitive behavior. Notice that Intel isn't pointing a gun at anyone, unlike people who use code-words like "anticompetitive." Nvidia are free to find another CPU to go with their chipset.Posted on Dec 25, 13:47
What? Intel is not providing a good product to its customers. That's very very bad. No doubt it makes good processors but why make consumers suffer?Posted on Dec 25, 07:42
Let's hope that Intel sells enough Atoms that they can get smacked for monopoly bundling.Posted on Dec 25, 07:30
AMD isn't because of ATI. How would it look if AMD worked with Nvidia? You have ATI but you're picking some other video GPU!Posted on Dec 25, 06:57
Given Nvidia's recent problems on coming clean about sub-standard manufacturing of its chips, I wouldn't want an Nvidia chipset in any computer I purchased. Nvidia is so yesterday.Posted on Dec 25, 06:28

Can you say "antitrust"?Posted on Dec 25, 02:17
Man, Intel has some cojones! Obama's DOJ probably won't be quite as accommodating to this sort of antitrust behavior as the Bush team was, and Nvidia will almost certainly file a complaint.Posted on Dec 25, 01:41
This is really pathetic of Intel. I will be strongly considering the Samsung NC20 over other Intel-powered netbooks because of Intel's heavy-handedness in the netbook market.Posted on Dec 25, 00:56
It is shameful that Nvidia even dare to try this. It's like a thief knocks at the door of a house and tells the owner, "can you open the door to let me steal something"...lolPosted on Dec 24, 23:09
Classic anticompetitive behavior.Posted on Dec 24, 21:11
Ha, nice to see someone doing unto Nvidia as Nvidia will do unto others. Maybe they can trade SLI for access to Atom CPUs?Posted on Dec 24, 16:01
Time for Nvidia to join forces with VIA once and for all, and create a Nano-GeForce combo to kick Intel right in the face. I'm disappointed with Intel. Ion has potential. I would buy such a combination. The 945 chipset is a relic.Posted on Dec 24, 15:14
I can't stop laughing seeing that a giant like Intel feels threatened by Nvidia.Atom is just a waste. AMD's Geode is better. I don't know why AMD isn't publicizing it.
