Linspire-Linux creator Michael Robertson outlined the difficult position that Intel was in releasing to Open Source, as Intel did not want to upset their large customer Microsoft.[2]Theo de Raadt of OpenBSD also claimed that Intel is being 'an Open Source fraud' after an Intel employee presented a distorted view of the situation on an open-source conference.[3] In spite of the negative attention Intel received as a result of the wireless dealings, the binary firmware still has not gained a license compatible with free software principles.
