Microprocessor Forum Day 1: too much of Intel, not much of anything else

Story posted on: May 22, 2007


Day 1 of the Microprocessor Forum is now over. Well... I'll be heading to the Expo for some "refreshments"! My overall sentiment, as I know you care? Way too much of Intel in the morning: a keynote from Intel fellow Mark Bohr, a whole session (out of three today!) with three presentations dedicated to just Intel technologies and moderated by Bohr himself. And to begin the afternoon, a panel on general purpose processor with 4 Intel employees out of 6 panelists, among them an AMD fellow (at least!). This just sounds too suspicious to be true... Will ask Max Barron, the Forum's director, (in the picture) later during the Expo.
OK, now I know. Max's decision to select so many Intel projects was based on "breakthroughs" for the industry.
"These were all breakthrough technologies, like Intel's Tera-scale computing research project. If AMD comes with breakthrough projects for the next Forum, I'll select them too", said Max.

There was this guy see.
He wasn\'t very bright and he reached his adult life without ever having learned "the facts".
Somehow, it gets to be his wedding day.
While he is walking down the isle, his father tugs his sleeve and says,

"Son, when you get to the hotel room...Call me"

Hours later he gets to the hotel room with his beautiful blushing bride and he calls his father,

"Dad, we are the hotel, what do I do?"

"O.K. Son, listen up, take off your clothes and get in the bed, then she should take off her clothes and get in the bed, if not help her. Then either way, ah, call me"

A few moments later...

"Dad we took off our clothes and we are in the bed, what do I do?"

O.K. Son, listen up. Move real close to her and she should move real close to you, and then... Ah, call me."

A few moments later...

"DAD! WE TOOK OFF OUR CLOTHES, GOT IN THE BED AND MOVED REAL CLOSE, WHAT DO I DO???"

"O.K. Son, Listen up, this is the most important part. Stick the long part of your body into the place where she goes to the bathroom."

A few moments later...

"Dad, I\'ve got my foot in the toilet, what do I do?"
