I don't know what will happen ultimately, but don't forget that the screw-ups of government intervention are still fresh on the minds of those and the industry that suffered because of the infamous telecom protection decisions of our recent past.

We basically bankrupted the telecom industry trying to help those who had nothing but the assets that really belonged to others. The final assessment was that they were beyond help or unprotectable.

I know this is different with AMD because the company has its own assets and appears at times to be responsible and reasonable in protecting and growing those assets. But AMD is truely a victem of Intel's capacity and ability to satisfy the total market. The rational thing to do is to enable them somehow, because it is probably in most everyones interest in the long run.

I just hate like hell to see some judges return to a practice of extrapolating AMD's woes to a hundred other "not worthy" causes.
