Tenchusatsu: RE: "If intc were to reduce its prices to match those of AMD,dollar for dollar, clock for clock, then intc would be initiating a price war....." I think the issue is not whether intc's prices can match or be at a discount to AMD's prices but rather is intc pricing at levels where they make no profit or actually take a loss on a particular market segment in an effort to drive AMD out of that market. Because of its dominant position and its financial resources, intc can afford to take the $ hit to realize its objective. Operating in this fashion is called predatory pricing and its the way big guys get rid of the little guy. Either American or United Airlines is up in front of the Justice Department on that very issue right now. That is the whining that Sanders was accused of by the intc longs. If it is true, then intc is 'the bad guy'. ted
