Anyone considering buying an AMD XP3200+ processor would best be served to stay away from any OEM version of that processor, most of them we've been seeing at the AMD forums are remarked ones from HongKong and Taiwan....

"Intellectual property rights are not up for negotiation, and frankly, abuse of intellectual property rights is not acceptable," he told businessmen, adding that China's rampant counterfeiting of American products was the top trade problem. "Intellectual property rights violations are a crime, and we don't believe we should be negotiating crimes with our trading partners."

Wow, talk about clueless, this guy must have just gotten off the boat. He seems to know nothing about the Chinese. If we are going to have "free" trade with China, we are going to have to become more like them because they are not going to become more like us anytime soon.

That means that we will probably have to throw overboard the concept of publicly accessible intellectual "property." Look at it as just one of the benefits of "free" trade.
