Intel App Store closing - did anybody ever buy something from them?

[kbrickley]

Probably one of the worst marketed services ever ... Intel really should have put more effort into it ... at least they are being class acts about the closure and offering refunds to their users

I only bought a couple of apps from them to try the store but I am getting my $10.80 back ... since they could have just ignored their users (which a lot of services do) I give them points for offering non-prorated refunds

This is the first ive heard of it

Which is probably why it is closing

They started it during the Netbook craze to offer some software that would run on those underpowered systems ... I picked up a copy of Angry Birds and Highborn just to try the service ... now getting my money back

lol how does a company that is so good at advertising processors be so bad at advertising this? I didn't even realize it existed till this post.

Peter Biddle, Intel AppUp's marketplace visionary, called Intel AppUp "the world's largest app store that nobody's ever heard of."[

marketing visionary? LoL how about looking for new job visionary.
