1. Maybe PCs should carry an "Intel (Israel) Inside" label
rnathans00 ,   Washington, USA   (11.10.09)
I wonder if those Intel CPUs carry a "Made in Israel" label, or if PCs going to Iran and Arab countries must source them from US or Asian factories. (The Core family of processors were/are designed in Israel.) Of course, Macs don't carry the "Intel Inside" label because "We don't need no stinkin' badges." - other than that famous fruit, obviously.
2. Mazel Tov! The world depends on Intel and Intel depends on
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (11.10.09)
the Jews. Imagine, computers running Saudi Arabia built on Jewish chips. YEEEEHAH!!!
3. Intel doing a good job running down AMD

I think Israel has something to do with it too.
4. #2 Bunny - imagine jews making Aliah and living in Jerusalem
Avi ,   Israel   (11.11.09)
YEEEEEEEEHAH !!!!
5. # 2 & 4 Imagine muslims ...
Muslim ,   Al Aqsa   (11.11.09)
obtaining nuclear power, oil and other power sources, having enthusiastic youth who feel that Jews should be stopped, governments lead by honest people, briliant brains and positive human resources. I can imagine :-) It's a nightmare for you, ha?!
6. TO #5...um you already have that
Robertos ,   LA,CA   (11.11.09)
You have oil, and "enthusiastic youth" who blow themselves up, but about that brilliance part....Yassar Arafat I guess is your hero, I hope his wife enjoys France and the millions he stole from his own people. Persians have higher potential than Arabs.
7. to#5 muslim
Marcelo ,   Frankfurt / Eurabia   (11.11.09)
Nobody has to imagine muslims getting resource because you have them almost all !!! The point here is even having oil up to the roof you are not able to do anything but supporting terror and killing. Muslims live because of jews. Otherwise you have no plans to live for....so, be ready for a mass of jews moving to the ethernal capital of jews: Jerusalem...do you see it??? I am loving it !!!!! Masalama !!
8. Intel Israel
shuebydoo ,   USA   (11.11.09)
God bless Intel...time to buy Intel stock. Can't wait for the processors to show "Israel" on them. Seen too many Intel processors with Malaysia, Singapore, Costa Rica, etc printed on them!
9. And the riots begin.......
(11.12.09)
Rabbis are in talks now b/c the factory of Intel is open on shabbat. the factory has to remain open 24 hrs / 7 days a week. Yesterday Jerusalem's Intel branch had to reinforce the windows of the branch for fear of haredi rioters. There's a chance that the haredim that work at Intel's Jerusalem branch may have to leave their jobs if their rabbis tell them too.
10. #9 - Why
Shalom (real one)   (11.12.09)
Why does Intel have to be open 24/7? Everyone deserves a break. I hadn't heard anything about this, but seems you have an inside scoop, so tell me - what is so urgent here that it overrides the Shabbat rest laws?
11. #10 from #9
(11.12.09)
Intel's factory in Jerusalem is under contract to stay open 24/7. ONLY the factory remains open 24/7. The other hi-tech workers in the offices work 5 days a week.
12. #10 from #9 continued....
(11.12.09)
Even the haredim that don't work in the factory may have to leave their jobs if their rabbis tell them too. If this happens the haredi workforce will suffer dearly.
13. Shalom , the Real one

An investment has to fructify , this sometimes can be done only if it works 24/7 . A friend of me had to undergo a CT examination . He was invited to come at 2 AM ! yes during the night , also because of the same reason , this installation is expensive and has to work as much hours as possible .
14. Shalom , 10
Charles ,   Petach Tikva   (11.13.09)
Everyone deserves a break , yes , and nobody works 24/7 . Those who work during the night and in the weekend receive a higher pay for those hours and are resting on another day .
