Tench- When was Intel's mission ever to "crush AMD"?

The mission of all companies is to make lots of money. The most efficient way to make lots of money is to operate with no competitors, or weak competitors. Therefore, it is strongly in Intel's interest to turn AMD into a weak competitor by weakening AMD financially. This was Intel's failure in 2001, a big failure.

It's not about crushing AMD so that Barrett and the boys can brag at the country club, it's about making money. This is known as the free enterprise system. Seems brutal on paper, but works out OK in practice.
