1312140 2012-11-13 00:29:00 "" Apparently the two men had had a disagreement about dogs sometime before Faull was shot.

McAfee went on to sell it to Intel in 2010. "

Huh, didn't know Intel bought it. Why??

And imagine if you criticised his software, never mind the dog.

1312141 2012-11-13 00:32:00 Didnt know Intel brought Mcafee out either. Mcafee would be the last thing I would buy lol. Its on Wikipedia too.

On August 19, 2010, Intel announced that it would buy McAfee for $48 a share in a deal valued at $7.68 billion

1312143 2012-11-13 00:46:00 Here's your answer as to why Intel brought it Pctek (www.tomshardware.com).

Essentially the company plans to integrate McAfee's security technology into processors for embedded devices. There are also plans to provide cloud-based security services for mobile devices.

Remind me not to get one of these :lol: It looks like this is in the Intel VPro CPu's

1312144 2012-11-13 06:20:00 How vile. What if you want different protection instead?
That's like embedding Nortons into your desktop CPU or something.......Yuk. Time for AMD perhaps....

Exactly.

And the heading inspires me to the thought that at last someone wants McAfee.
