Aleks,

Intel's relationship with Microsoft is not the best. As the recent product announcements did look, the favorite Intel's computer manufacturer is Apple. The new Mac Pro, introduced and already selling since this Monday has Intel Xeon Nehalem CPU, supposed to be officially announced by Intel at the end of the month. So Apple is the first - they selling a computer with an Intel CPU not announced by Intel officially yet. Where is Microsoft? ;)

If Serbia would be involved in the OS-level driver / boot code development, that would be the best news ever. What kind of OS? Does not really matter. The boot code ( = UEFI drivers) are OS-independent.

Good news and bad news. The bad news being Microsoft is in the team. When many other european countries are choosing linux and open source software for their government and public programmes, I'm worried that
they will not follow this common sense.

Where as Intel provides the chips, as pointed out other will provide the actual computing products.

The same is much less true of software if it is based on windows. It would be bad if the government gets locked in to some long term restrictive licensing agreement with the software initially given away
at a heavily discounted price.

I hope they do this properly.

It would be better if Intel built a chip fab in Serbia though...

Heloooooooo!!!!

This is a great news - except that Intel DOES NOT MAKE computers. If Serbia is jumping on some Intel-related projects, that is terrific and a good start.

But Intel does not have:

1) Computers
2) Operating system

With these Serbia would be best served by Intel's customers. For instance - Apple. Or Acer. Or Dell. Or others. Pick one, which is already has the foot and established dealer network in Serbia.

So I am not sure, what I would discuss with Intel's top brass. Probably to help establish a good R&D school in Serbia and work with their closest customers (see above list and more) to ensure the smooth co-operation.

But Intel is hardly in position to talk about assembled computers. It's not their profile.
