    Or they are worried that Intel will pull out due to risk of consumer boycott and want to push the deal through.

      I don’t think Intel is too worried about boycotts because a significant portion of their customer base is businesses.

      The only real sector of their customer base that would even do a boycott is the independent PC builders, and I doubt even 5% of those customers would follow through.

      Your average consumer doesn’t even know what the hell an “intel” is or why they should care, it’s just a sticker they see on their laptop/PC.
