+++ Intels Mogel-Chip +++ Intels Entscheidung, den neuen
Pentium III mit einer Identifikationsnummer auszuruesten
stoesst auf Verwunderung und Kritik. Doch Intel meint es
ernst und will sogar Sites aufbauen, die nur vom
Pentium III genutzt werden koennen.

Pentium III-only sites coming
By DAVID FLYNN | INTEL is working with
several Australian content providers to
establish Web sites that are not only
optimised for PCs based on the Pentium III
processor but restricted to Pentium III
machines.
The program intends for each Web site to
probe the PC and use the chip's Processor
Serial Number (PSN) to identify a Pentium
III client.
"We want the process of moving around the
site to be invisible to the user, so
there's no time lag as you move from one
area to the next," Angelo Lo Certo, Intel's
advertising and Internet marketing manager
for Asia Pacific, said, although he adds
"this is one of the ways we'd like to do it
in the future". However, in the early days
of the program the PSN will not be
employed. Instead, the exclusivity will be
obtained by the Web sites "interrogating
the processor" to obtain a CPU ID which
proclaims the chip as a Pentium II or a
Pentium III. This is a generic instruction
common to all chips, not one which tags
each individual processor, says Lo Certo.
