I’m honestly not sure how accurate this article is but it seems legit enough to me. It basically says that Intel will never deploy Vista to its internal corporate machines, ever.
When a company as tech savvy as Intel, with full source code access and having written several large chunks of the OS, says get stuffed, you know you have a problem. Well, everyone knows MS has a problem, but it is nice to see it codified in such a black and white way though. Reassuring, like a warm cup of tea, or a public kick to the corporate crown jewels.
Man that is seriously bad for Microsoft. Article continues on with:
The other one is the big white horse in the corner, Mac OS. If there was ever a company that is loyal to Intel, it is Apple. If there was ever a company that could make MacOS work internally, it is Intel. While any marriage with the turtlenecked sociopath is a match made in hell, don’t count this one out either.
I would love that, MacOS operating better in an enterprise environment? freaking awesome. DO IT INTEL YEA!!!

Vista: epic fail.
Here in my office, I can't even get my wife to give up her balky, annoying, always troublesome XP machine.. it's hard for me to imagine Intel being able to wean its employees from the Evil Empire, but it sure would be fun if they did!
