Something to consider about Intel

[Zinedene]

Hi,

Just a quick note:

Intel has built its plants on ILLEGALLY occupied land, which Israel made sure was available for large companies like Intel, Coca-cola etc....

The areas where they are located were villages, and these local populations were thrown out by the Israelis and then Israel welcomed the large corps in. Thus helping the Israeli eceonomy, and also passing half the problem onto the corporation. But, Intel recieves many tax deductions from the Israeli government for having built factories in these places. Much the same with Coca-cola(kiryat gat).
This is widely known, and is currently in the legal process.

Since I found this out a few years ago, I have not used any Intel chips, nor do I fit them in any machines for others. every machine I make, I inform the person of why Intel will not be installed by me and friends. Only AMD is acceptable to us.

Just thought I would let you lot know, so you can decide what is more important, your morals, or your favourite company.. you can also write to Intel, and they will admit it themselves...

Final score, AMD Vs Intel
1 - 0

Oh my God, say it isn't so.

I also heard that Nike makes it's shoes in Communitst China!!! I think I'll only buy 5 pairs this year and teach them a lesson.

Also, and you won't belive this one, Rosie O'Donnell has underpaid Kids make her clothes in some 3rd world UNSAFE!!! factory, Guess I won't be buying her charity christmas album as a gift for anyone this year either.

And I won't even mention that your computer temperatures do nothing to further the advancement of global warming. Dude, com on, we have a planet to destroy. ;)

AMD makes chips in Malaysia...Intel also makes chips in Malaysia. I have to check my chip.there was some documentary I saw saying that Nike mde shoes in the philipines-the workers are 14 year old girls. Another one I read is that some university in US went against nike, and nike cut their sponsorship to that place. I may be wrong.

It's called progress for big business. It's been going on since the beginning of time, in one way or another.
Wal-Mart comes into an area and gets tax breaks for building, shifting the burden of taxes to the public, forces the closing of smaller business. They eliminate many more jobs that they create.

Zinedene, this post has nothing productive to offer the forums other than intentionally trying to start a flame war... not to mention, no proof to validate your flame war. Don't be starting more threads like this... consider this an official warning.
