That's 'unsubstantiated,' not 'untrue...' http://www.bit-tech.net/news/bits/2012/09/27/intel-otellini-unsubstantiated/1
Windows 8 being one of the best things that ever happened to intel doesn't mean that Otellini thinks Windows 8 is actually good. In other words, Windows 8 could rake in a ton of money and interest in Intel's developments, but it could be an utter piece of crap. I'm not really sure why that intel spokesperson felt the need to suck up to MS. MS in the past has attempted to blackmail intel, back around the Pentium 1 ages. But now they are in absolutely no position to do so again; intel doesn't necessarily need MS to keep going. Their investments in other OSes would keep them going and if MS tried fighting back, they'd lose since I tihnk people would rather side with Intel. If this were AMD then I wouldn't say the same thing since they're not in a position to make such opinionated comments.
