China vs. Intel (real)

Cliff notes:
China wants WiFi makers to use intentiony weak encription in their wireless products. Intel say FU china.
 
Choice A) Intel supports WAPI
Choice B) No Centrino laptops sold in China

Doesn't take a brain surgeon to see that Intel is going to choose B.

And that right there is why I like AMD.

what is this WAPI anyway? i know the chinese are demanding it, but is it a big sacrafice/something on intel's part? they obviously dont want to give in to it... is it really a lot to ask?
 
WAPI is not an industry standard, so I support Intel on this. Frankly I dont trust the Chinese government to come up with a wireless security system.
 
You're article sucks

Here's the real story:
Intel may stop some chip sales in China due to questionable trade practices by the country. New rules will go into effect June 1, which require foreign companies to comply with unique Chinese security standards for wireless. Such standards would hurt non-Chinese companies. Under the rule, foreign companies must give Chinese companies access to their technology and valuable patents or requires non-Chinese companies to purchase equipment from Chinese manufacturers. Intel is the first company to directly say it would pull out of some Chinese markets due to the rule. Intel also said there are technical problems in terms of supporting applications and interoperability with the Chinese standard. Broadcom also indicated it would not meet China's deadline. China's Ministry of Information responded indicating that it would not be phased by such moves, as Chinese companies would eventually take up their market share anyway. The United States says the rule is not consistent with China's World Trade Organization commitments.

Do we really want to give our technological blue prints to the biggest counterfeiting, piracy country in the world? Hell NO!! FU CHINA!!

In that case, they can all go to hell. What kind of ridiculous requirement is that?

You all know the plan right? Get the blueprints, buy a couple, reverse engineer, and bam, China has their own wireless chipset. They've pulled Intel, and plenty of other companies in before. Bring them in, offer cheap labor, steal the secrets and create something smaller, faster, and/or cheaper.

If China did start making their own wireless chipset, that would give them both a processor and a wireless chipset. If they have a processor, they must have motherboards (they used MIPS -I believe 64, but I'm not sure if they have a 32bit version over there- and IIRC they are slightly incompatible with real MIPS processors). Give them wireless, and they pretty much have a complete system.

I won't support things from China, can't see how anyone can do that and sleep at night.
