Intel marketing types, no doubt. If everyone feels happy about paying the phone bills to receive your message, I'm sure I can put together a similar "fairly brief description" of my company's latest product which I'll be glad to post. But if I do it, then others will too and the net will become a mass of commercials and then cease to exist. Please register my vote as against such use of the net.
