If the answer turned out to be Intel, would you overlook the misleading 28-core demo the article discusses?

Intel provides a lot of patches for Linux Kernel, for their hardware, performance counters, and their graphics drivers are open source under mainline. I'm not mentioning their wired Ethernet and other various drivers.

Being one of the top contributors in Linux/OSS/FLOSS doesn't allow them to come clean from their 28-core, inadvertently but conveniently miscommunicated demo.

Yeah, though it's not the best thing to have on the resume. That's for sure.
