He used to be an editor in The inquirer, a spin off from The Register ( UK ) focusing purely on rumours. It was very popular in the early 2000s, and I don't remember the details but he broke a few Intel stories that got him pushed out of the site, or The inquirer were punished and not letting them joining any Intel events. Something similar happen to Nvidia too.
He is very much pro AMD, ATI and Anti Intel, Nvidia.
Although he has a comparatively accurate track record for both Intel and Nvidia leaks.
He also tends to be over dramatic in writing, that is even before the paywall and subscription model. So his style were not the results of trying to sell you $1000/Year subscription. But as long as your know his perspective and history, then his article are much easier to read.
Cool, thanks for the history, that all makes a lot of sense. I didn't find anything that hard to read about the article, it's just blatantly anti-intel.
Well I am just doing the summary for you to save you time searching, and more time working on FreeBSD :P
Edit: Now I remember, it was the story about Intel Pentium 4 scaling problems. He broke the story about Intel will never reach whatever silly Ghz they initially promised. And Intel were not happy. ( That was nearly 20 years ago... I am getting old)
