Why is inetl controlling reviews?

[piesquared]

Now with all the outrage over the 2 part review of Trinity, this should be off the charts.

Every time, there was a new excuse. Eventually they started insisting that we run specific OSes, run specific tests, and only do the things that they proposed or they would not supply us one. If we deviated at all, either in testing or writing, we would miss out on the wonders of Ultrabooks. We told them to get bent again. After about a dozen rounds of this, SemiAccurate gave up, but Intel is still more than happy to supply any site willing to give the category good reviews with as many as needed, prototypes, upcoming concept hardware, and anything else they need. If you hinted at an honest review however, you got lied to.

The difference of course being that AMD simply split their product review, while inetl flat out controlled the benchmarks on theirs.

We apologise for the fault in the subtitles. Those responsible have been sacked.

Are you dyslexic?

 

[AdamK47]

Why do you continue to spell Intel as Inetl?

I'm curious - i don't recall how long piesquared has been... actively doing these stunts.

How long is it?


Most of us know what he's doing right - it's plain obvious.
But doesn't it get boring for him? - even if hes actually a passionate blind person.
At some point even the most seasoned troll will ...you know realize it's time for a strategy change.

Lets take bets on when he disappears!

Who cares what Intel thinks it is doing - everyone knows the future is fusion.

Yes, what we all didn't know is that to get the true value of a company, you invert the stock price. All along, we were wrong. These certain companies that are shooting for all time lows are actually increasing in value!

Exciting things!

Intel's not doing much better - it's near its 52-week low. Freakin' Qualcomm has a market cap equal to Intel's with <1/2 the profits. Wall Street is generally on crack.

No, you have to invert the price. It's getting better. It's trying to compete with the super superior ADM!

You see, the entire world market is wrong. ADM doesn't sell much cpu product because we're all morons. That's the only reason. We just need a prophet to lead us to the light!

He is prepared to die for AMD.

He only disappears when they cease to exist.

 

[piesquared]

Ah classic deflection. Not one of you clowns addressed the issue.

Y'all have ADHD? It was just 3 days ago you all were crying the blues about manipulating reviews. ?? What's up with the double standards?

 

[Ferzerp]

You shouldn't call us names. That's not very nice.

It was a group term. [edit] in jest I might add.

Also, are clowns really that offensive??

Intel has doubled their dividend over the last 5 years. They pay 3-4% in dividends each year compared to 0 on the AMD side and about 1% for Qualcomm. Investing isn't all about stock price, Intel is a good long-term investment for the dividends alone. It has only fluctuated between ~13 and 33 in the last 10 years. If you bought during or within a year after the 2008 stock crash, your doing well with solid dividends along the way.

Agree with others though, that Wall Street is pretty messed-up though...

Errm, yes.

 

[Ferzerp]

Name calling is not ok just because you call more than one people that name.

Also, I don't think calling people names and claiming "I was only kidding" really is a good excuse.

 

[exar333]

Ultrabooks are definitely not perfect, but they are pushing the industry in the right direction. In a world where a LOT of the laptops released were just trash, it's a good idea to try and create a standard where you can find a competitive laptop with decent thermals, good battery life, and a good profile. It would be great if they start on screen quality next.

Then you should make a big deal about it.

 

[Ferzerp]

In what way should I make a big deal about it?

 

[Meghan54]

Considering the source(s), exactly why should I be getting upset?

 

[Phynaz]

Isn't it obvious yet? Inetl is EVIL!

 

[Maximilian]

Goddamn Inetl So sick of them, i always buy from MAD.

(u )MAD( bro) for life, yo!

 

[HopJokey]

Who is inetl?

 

[thilanliyan]

If they are actually doing this, I hope a more reputable site outs the story. Not that it matters since Intel CPUs are for the most part better than AMD CPUs anyway, but none of these companies should be able to manipulate reviewers at least in their full reviews (not previews).

Omfg, he has gone full retard troll today.
