I agree, this is very premature, we don't have all the information yet.
I purchased an i9 in december, because I cared about the performance, not the price, and had I known the little information we have now, I would have switched to AMD (I even hesitated to do so at the time).
I am still able to send back my i9 to amazon, until end of january, and as I am in europe, I also have a 2-year guarantee against faulty or non-conform goods. Not sure if it can apply, but as of today nobody can tell what kind of action we can take against this (I understand the intel claims this is not a bug, but others may beg to differ).
Also, besides any legalities, I am now an angry customer and would probably not buy intel anymore after this.
