Re: "Now if Intel decided to withold chips etc from oems who sell AMD parts, in a systematic way then we would have a different kettle of fish."

I agree and I think in Intel's settlement with the FTC they agreed not to withold products or advance information from customers except under conditions like the Intergraph case where they were being sued. Another interesting case was the DEC lawsuit. In their suit DEC simultaneously demanded that Intel stop producing processors and that Intel continue supplying DEC with processors. A very odd paradox.

Re: "And besides Intel would not be stupid to violate the law on such a high profile case."

Agreed.

Re: "I do think that their actions on MB's are much more egregious. "

What actions might those be?

Re: "However I am sure pressure is applied on a verbal basis, and it would be impossible to prosecute etc."

You have no evidence yet you are sure?
