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."
Oh friends! You do not know how great it feels to finally be honest with my family, friends, and self! I came out of the closet today and it feels great to no longer be living a dark life of lies. My family and friends were not so happy, however, as they denounced me and shit. I'm sure they will come around though. There are millions of people like me and we become more and more accepted every day. So, how many other ./ers are pedophiles as well?
