    There was chocolate everywhere.

    The point intel were supposed to get through with their marketing was the speed of the i3, i5 and i7 processors so i have no idea what fool thought that when people see a penguin they think speed.. :confused:

    Isn't it an Intel ad though? Why are you saying it's Microsoft? :confused:
    And can't Linux also run on an Intel chip?
