Intel Corporation Graduate Intern Technical interview questions

I was contacted by my prospective boss via e-mail within a week or so of responding to a solicitation for a specific internship on Intel's website, and we arranged a phone interview for later in the week. He was fairly punctual about calling me and was easy to talk to. The interview wasn't what I expected -- no technical questions were asked, he started immediately with asking me if I had any questions, and so I proceeded to ask some things about what kind of environment I would be working in, what the surrounding area is like, and what kind of work I would be doing. He was reluctant to tell me the actual nature of the project, so I didn't press it. He asked me a few questions along the way, such as what my future ambitions were. All told, it was about an hour. I heard back from him via e-mail a little less than two months later asking if I had any plans for the summer yet and that he had tentatively chosen someone that had done their graduate research in the exact area of the job (what are the odds, but then again, it's Intel) but was checking in on me as an alternate. I had already accepted another offer by that point, though.

After I submitted my resume online, I got a call from the person who later became my supervisor. He asked me about the area of my interest in wireless networks. He also described the project that they are working on (WiMAX networks). Intel has developed a board for WiMAX networks and they want me to do research on it. He asked if I can do this and I said yes. Later, the person who is a reference on my resume told that the manager has asked him about me and that they were about to give me an offer. I got called later by the human resources department at Intel and they told that I got the offer.
