Why are engineering sample CPUs illegal to sell?
Due to the pre-production nature of the engineering sample processors,
they are generally only loaned to OEMs, ODMs, and ISVs for pre-production test and evaluation work under specific contractual terms and conditions
to assure the protection of assets and confidential information.
Engineering sample processors are not made available
to the general public by Intel."
In effect, you're in possession of stolen goods.
The whole idea is, no matter what happens, those goods are
not to be circulating in the hands of the public. You could give
them back to the local rep, and he could have them shredded.
(Some factories shred their e-waste to prevent recovery by
waste removal people.)
Those samples could have defects, maybe they don't have
a 100,000 hour operating life (early mortality). They might not
even compute properly at full speed. Like an ES 3GHz processor,
there might be an errata sheet in the box, stating you're supposed
to run them at 2GHz.
Intel could also mark them with sufficient information, to
trace them back to who received them. To determine who is leaking
them and violating a contract term.
With other manufacturers, those parts are the equivalent of the
"qual barrel". And the stuff in the qual barrel, is definitely
not production quality.
Not allowing them to be sold, is to protect *you* from receiving
inferior goods.
** True story:
A manufacturer here in Sydney ( Jands Electronics) made a "pre-production" batch of a new model power amplifier for professional use.
They wisely chose to road test it in the expected environment - on the road with live bands.
They proved to be problematic in several respects and the design was heavily revised for the production version.
The sample amps were fully labelled with the maker's logo and the same model number as the later versions.
Well that was pretty stupid of them.
Think there were about 20 of them, put into storage for eventual disposal.
Then an enterprising staff member obtained them and decided he could sell them all to a local second hand dealer- letting him believe they were just like the regular models on sale at the time - but for a very low price so giving him a large mark up.
So he lied.
But my question was about selling them as engineering samples.

When the ZX80 came out it was available as an unassembled kit for $99. I don't remember the exact problem but I had to tweak it ti get it to run.
Osborne came out with a 100 column conversion for the Osborne 1. CMOS
was a new technology and while it normally saved power, dissipation

Back in those days I could see the components without a microscope so component level troubleshooting was feasible.

They use logic analysers in simulations now before the design gets
anywhere near a product.
floating point processors built on the fie were defective, and rather
than discard everything they just blew a few "fuses" on the chip and
sold them as SX on boards where an external FPU could be mounted if
you needed the FPU function
That's another myth. At introduction, the SX's used the same silicone
as the DX product, with the floating point unit untested and disabled.
If Intel were to have relied on die where the floating point unit was defective, there wouldn't have been enough to meet the enormous demand
for SX product. This was high yield production at Intel not Joe's
crap line. And within a year Intel had a new SX version with the floating point
unit removed, which made the die smaller, less costly to produce
and more profitable. That was the plan all along.

You are complicit where you are aiding and abetting the theft through

Stop being such a pedantic fuckwit. There is no judge on this earth who would do me for saying to you, "hey that car's not locked".
