> This evening Wes Felter posted a link to an EE Times article where Intel expresses its disbelief over plans to cripple computers and turn them into "dumb terminals". Wes's comment on the link: "Looks like Intel is firmly in the pocket of the entertainment BigCos." I asked Wes where the smoking gun is. He pointed to a page in his archive for 3/21, which included a link to this joint statement by Intel and AOL, which clearly says they want to turn over all our computers to the old supply chain, where "consumers" use computers to watch stuff produced by the entertainment industry. These systems, presumably, would not be capable of competing with that industry. In the world they're envisioning you'll be watching simulations of people posting to weblogs, instead of real people. Awesome.  [Scripting News]comments < 8:57:23 PM
