Re: "Cyrix was their main competition at the low end and they drove the competition out of business by predatory pricing. Now, like I said, if Intel decides to simply match AMD's prices, you guys will cry "Intel's starting a price war!!! Booo Hooo"."

If AMD has had to lower their prices because they can't sell all their inventory at current prices, it is NOT a price war, or predatory pricing. That's the normal functioning of a market economy.

If AMD was sold out and STILL went ahead and lowered prices, that would be an action characteristic of a price war, and it would be predatory.

Get it yet?
