Hey Mike,
Do you make blanket claims about all managers at Intel? I know plenty of arrogant managers at IBM and lots of very intelligent and nice ones.. I think you are using the old generalization and blanket indictment of people you don't even know.
So could you list all the arrogant people you know at Intel? Just because intel doesn't accept your whitepaper doesn't mean that Intel is arrogant, maybe the paper isn't what they are looking for.
I know several arrogant and I mean VERY arrogant AMD managers in their server area, but you know - I know many more nice guys at Amd..
Rather than assume Intel is being arrogant, call them about the paper, it's a big company.
