Surviving Re...<<<<The arbitrator found Intel extensively breached its obligations to act in good faith and deal fairly. Beginning in mid-1984 Intel, anxious to be the sole source for the 80386 (its 32-bit chip, which was to prove vastly successful) and convinced the contract was to its disadvantage, decided to frustrate the operation of the contract by taking no more products from AMD. Intel also resolved to keep this decision from AMD and the public,
leaving AMD and others in the industry with the belief AMD would be a second source for the 80386. This "ke[pt] AMD in the Intel competitive camp" and avoided public
knowledge of Intel's sole-source strategy for the 80386, a strategy Intel feared could limit its market if known. n4 The plan succeeded: AMD continued for about two years to
believe, incorrectly, its agreement with Intel "had a future." >>>>>>>>>>>

Surviving great post. Normally one would assume Elmer would drop his vendetta against AMD if he was indeed mad at AMD for breaking the agreement with Intel , when it was Intel who refused to follow their agreement. However Elmer being Elmer I assume Elmer will think of another reason to keep the vendetta going. Facts don't seem to phaze Elmer's fudd one bit.
