That's not for me, I don't want a laptop in every room that has a tv. A Boxee Box in each of my rooms with a tv I wouldn't mind at all. Boxees work fine for my needs and are easy to use. Sure they have issues, that's what this thread is about, so back on topic, this petition. Keep signing folks, it's a shot.

#701 here.
Seriously, unless there's proprietary tech in the SDK that Intel's worried about being reverse-engineered, the only reason i can think of why they haven't released it is bureaucratic inertia.

Agree, however its going to take hundreds of thousands to make intel even twitch its lazy @ss to fixing its issues.

I just dont understand why they cannot simply just issue a patch for the most complained about issue which is the HD Audio dropouts.

No excuses really and a shame having been a long time user/support of intel, which saddens me, as I am sure it saddens many!

ps:
Also just signed the petition!
