unsubstantiated claims

Hmm, do you remember the RAMBUS debacle, and the 180° turnaround Toms Hardware did on that in favor of Intel and P4?
I think that very clearly substantiates that Toms Hardware had an agenda to favor Intel.
It's not my fault if you are unaware of facts that were common knowledge among IT specialists at the time.

You are making the fallacy of "argument from ignorance". Just because you don't know, doesn't make it false.
