BK still having it his way
As someone who is still trying to recover from the small "job performance/job validity" layoffs of 2015 (there's nothing like working two part-time, no-benefit jobs for 65 hours a week at 60 percent of your old salary -- everyone should try it!), I... — read more

All is not bad in the land of Chips but sadly not any market Intel plays in!
