I agree with him on a few points. I never understood the Kaby Lake inclusion on x299. The point is high end, but they include a dual channel, relatively lower end CPU option? That's the opposite of what this platform is.
I was not aware of the RAID key thing, and I agree that's really shitty of Intel to do.
Intel does seem to be taking a wait and see approach. If Threadripper does well they can open the floodgates, but if it does poor they can just cancel their future plans.
Intel doesn't really want to commit to this yet, they just want to say they have an answer to people buying TR.
