Hacker-proof? Virus-proof? Not with an x86 design, it's not. He's bullshitting and absolutely batshit insane to boot. Plus, you know, Intel were making dual-core processors before the Core 2 Duo.

Shh, don't tell the prisoner that obvious fact or you will end up in prison with a bunch of electronics where the sun don't shine.

He sounds a bit mental, but I wouldn't put it past a dick like Jobs to do something like that. The Core chip had to invented by someone, and there's every possibility that it was this dude.

Yeah!, that would be so funny if he wins but he is in prison for life so he has no real use for his money. This means the company lost 5 billion dollars for no real reason, Eeeexceeellent.

Also if you think about it maybe 2 and duo ((out of core 2 duo)(derr)) mean 22 so infact this means that a 22 year old Platypus that was the CEO of intel was the course of september 11 attack. But if it was a Platypus, oh my god Kevin Rudd is the one who was in charge of the attack oh my god oh my god no way. but 22 is really old for a platypus so it must of been Kevin Rudds great grand father back from the dead. Who ellected that smug son of a bitch any ways?

If he thought of and supposidly had a devalopement plan for this Chip, it still begs the question; Why is he in jail, and can he be still be considered credible sane?

So, what's he inside for?

Is it okay if I fantasize that they finally criminalized abject stupidity?

It's a good question, but not one I'm able to find out I'm afraid.
He is also putting up a claim that he has been "unlawfully imprisoned", but I think without delving through Oregon's police records, I can't really tell you.

So he's like every other person in prison? But I wasn't aware people in jail could sue, seems logical now that I think about it.

Anyway I find his letter rather stupid, who the hell responds well to a threat?

Perhaps this guy is just simply brilliant rather than technically so.

Upon receiving his $5 billion, he would instruct Intel to achieve the amazing feat of the hacker- and virus-proof computer: Turn the machine off.

Though previous incarnations of computer hardware are capable of this, this is the first hardware specifically designed for it.

Next he'll be telling us he invented the lightbulb and a Delorian that can not only travel back in time but is also hacker and virus proof, lets hope he learns from his mistakes and doesnt send that to Apple

How does a county of over 30000 with a town containing over 10000 people not have an online public access system? I live in a county of just over 30000 with a town seat with a population just over 5000 in the rural midwest and even we have online public records. I really don't want to call the west coast just to find out why he's in prison, but I'm curious. That's not even the point of the article and I'm curious.

Doesn't anyone else love how the letter he sent to Intel has striking similarities to, say, a ransom note?

Forget about ransom, it reminds me of outright extortion. It's probably the worst attempt at extortion I've ever seen, but still extortion nevertheless.

But wouldn't it be awesome if he was telling the truth?

interestingly the air force only use blue pens and the army only use black.

why specifically blue ink? is blue ink more official

black ink is more difficult to spot as real as opposed to computer signature print. blue and black inks are the only two colours that bind a legal document as such and so blue ink would prove that he signed it, blue printed ink is easy to spot.
