Hilarious reading here. Lots of interesting background info in here
too about the origins of "Lunix", hacker manuals like Neuromancer,
etc.

Is Your Child A Computer Hacker?
"If your son has requested a new "processor" from a company called
"AMD", this is genuine cause for alarm. AMD is a third-world based
company who make inferior, "knock-off" copies of American processor
chips. They use child labor extensively in their third world
sweatshops, and they deliberately disable the security features that
American processor makers, such as Intel, use to prevent hacking. AMD
chips are never sold in stores, and you will most likely be told that
you have to order them from internet sites. Do not buy this chip! This
is one request that you must refuse your son, if you are to have any
hope of raising him well."

I also saw this story on theInq, and posted it to c.s.i.p.games.action.
"Shawk" there gave the link to the original article, here:

Some of the comments are as funny as the article itself.

Well, if you read it on the Internet, it MUST be true!

Well, I've been saying all that for years!
