BadAnalogyGuy is right. We need people that know how to bend the law every which way in order to fight these corporate crooks and their armies of lawyers that know how to trample the law.
This is what I don't get. All you Creationists are so ready to trust the math and physics behind the car you drive, the computer you use to surf the web, the house you live in, the products and services you use, but when the same math and physics are telling you "no, the world is slightly older than 7,000 years" you object. And you're shocked that others don't understand your objections. Baffling.
Outsourcing tech support to India is and will be a standard for a while... so get used to it. Dell is one of many companies doing it because it's cheaper. There is nothing you can do about that. I've called Dell support many a times, and had to talk to Indians with thick accents. But they are always courteous and willing to repeat themselves if you ask.
As for the Intel thing... the reason Dell pushes Intel is cause they probably signed a deal with them allowing them to purchase the chips for a lower price. This way they can sell PCs cheaper. If they start selling PCs with AMDs the overall prices will go up, and sales will drop.

This dude is of his rocker.... I mean completely insane.
