Despite FTC Settlement, Intel Can Ship Oak Trail Without PCIe
MojoKid writes "When the Federal Trade Commission settled their investigation of Intel, one of the stipulations of the agreement was that Intel would continue to support the PCI Express standard for the next six years. Intel agreed to all the FTC's demands, but Intel's upcoming Oak Trail Atom platform presented something of a conundrum. Oak Trail was finalized long before the FTC and Intel began negotiating, which means Santa Clara could've been banned from shipping the platform. However, the FTC and Intel have recently jointly announced an agreement covering Oak Trail that allows Intel to sell the platform without adding PCIe support — for now."

Maybe they can just glue on dummy PCIe slots, kind of like the Chinese used to hand-paint barcodes on boxes.
Dang, I'm no good with Google today. I can't find the reference. Years ago, when barcodes were just starting to become popular on boxes/cases used for shipping, I recall a story where some American company had specified that their Chinese supplier had to begin bar-coding boxes of goods sent to the US to make warehousing here easier, and proceeded to have fits when none of the barcodes scanned. They eventually figured out that the Chinese had complied by hiring skilled artists to paint these "little symbols" on their existing box stock rather than buying bar-code printing equipment as intended. Interesting both because it demonstrated failure-to-communicate and also demonstrated how little Chinese workers were paid, even skilled artists.
...by what the actual issue is here? And I did RTFA.
Something about Intel pushing a new proprietary graphics bus into a new chipset...they never actually mentioned how the FTC thing got started.

I don't understand why IBM is being forced to support PCI-E.
That would also kill Intel's high-end consumer products. Most high-end Intel CPUs are sold to gamers, who aren't going to be gaming on some crappy Intel integrated graphics chip. Thank you for the information of this information with your name on my Chat mirc site I share my own mind, do not they?
