"In 2001 Intel concentrated on its core competency of chip making and began using Chinese contract manufacturers such as Foxconn to make Intel-branded motherboards."
Intel motherboards are crap, yes.
You didn't do enough research. They don't make Intel's CPUs, they make their MoBos. |

but it doesn't change the fact that a whole lot of companies use foxconn, or other Chinese/Taiwanese factories that have equal or worse working conditions.
Why hire a guy in America for 7.25/hr for manufacturing when a child in China can do it for around $.50/hr? |

I dunno, a little thing called "ethics"?
Also, I never denied the fact others use Foxconn, I hate all companies that use them equally. |

Microsoft is horrible for killing of a company that was already dying from its previous parent? Nintendo didn't want Rare especially after 2001, and they didn't have a use for it. Nintendo was stupid enough to sell them to MICROSOFT, out of ALL companies, though. At least they had second thoughts and are working to get them back.
