Example: You drive a piece of crap car that doesn't belong on any road. The CEO of the company that makes it is a sucker. But don't take that as a personal attack. I just have an issue with your car as a product.



Did I every explicitly say, "Intel CEO Brian Krzanich is a sucker"?

No. I was colorful in my language in describing the situation where Otellini wanted to "let some other sucker deal with it". This was meant to add a slightly humorous tinge to what is an unfortunate situation for investors.

This may have been out of line, but you should be intelligent enough to understand the context in which that statement was made.

But I do stand by what I said about Quark: it is a bloated pig, just like the first netbook Atoms were slow pieces of junk, and just like the original Pentium 4 was a hot mess. Taking an i486 and simply porting it to a modern process is not the optimal way to design a chip for this space. A new, ground-up micro-architecture is the right way to go, similar to what ARM does with its Cortex M series. Want proof? Take a look at the alleged die size of Quark on 32nm against any modern ARM micro-controller core. It's much, much larger.

Talking smack and taunting people is a de facto personal attack.



aeassa's been posting his own, personal, defensible observations.

If you're interpreting his posts as "talking smack" and being "taunts" because you personally don't like what he's saying and have a hard time dealing with them, that's YOUR problem.

Thin-skinned whining is TEN TIMES more insufferable than actual personal attacks and stupid dragged-out s**tstorm arguments over minutia.

So you are saying that if I say Intel hasn't made any decent mobile SoCs you will take that as a personal attack? Or would you like to calibrate exactly where along the scale one has to go before you feel personally attacked? Personally I think forming an emotional attachment to some shares is a bad idea, it is far too easy to fall prey to confirmation bias about ones decisions.
