JC, <Has Jerry actually called Intel "fascist"?>

fortune.com

AMD's Sanders can barely contain his emotions when he talks about Intel. "This is a fascist organization that uses intimidation of their customers and the rest of the infrastructure guys to make our lives extremely difficult," he says. "This is their 'cut off the air supply' strategy. No matter what they say, they want to be an out-and-out monopoly. If we're gone, there is no competition, and if you believe, as I do, that competition is the key to innovation, we'll lose that too."

Hold on, he's not finished yet. "There's another reason we're attacking their business model, and that is that the entire PC hardware industry, thanks to Intel, has become an unstable molecule. It's unreal, it's unbelievable, that a company is making as much money as they are when all their customers are suffering huge losses, and have delegated most of their R&D to them."


There's the whole quote from Mr. Class Act himself. I guess The Chauffeured One must feel like a prisoner in a concentration camp thanks to the Intel Third Reich.

<incidentally, shouldn't this thread now close per the standard usenet Nazi/Hitler rule?>

I guess. But you should tell that to Jerry. ;-)
