<p>Ah, now that the ninja is beginning to look around the web using such stealthy tools as Google and Bing, he has come across other &#8220;ninja&#8221; discussions. And in that mass of tangled threads I came across this message from Michael Brito, an Intel <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">ninja</span> I mean Samurai. Well other than the fact that he&#8217;s got that last bit wrong he does a good job illuminating the unilluminable.  I think the ninja shall go follow Mr. Brito and see what we can learn.</p>
