Over the past weekend, two videos which were uploaded to YouTube caused a mad wave of rumors about an upcoming GoogleTV channel.

After losing it’s Google account back in March to it’s biggest rival, AMD, Intel took it seriously and put together a special motherboard to fit Google’s exact specifications and get them to switch back. Well this move worked and Google have now switched back to using Intel’s products.
