    They seem more concerned with their bonuses and stock buybacks. In August Intel announced that they’d be laying off 15k workers to “save” $10 billion US. They’re also cutting back on R&D for the same reason. I guess the MBAs decided that losing customers by hamstringing Linux users is an acceptable loss. Not like folks won’t forget about this six months from now, anyway…
