Ted, Has AMD ever made money off its lawsuits? Has Intel ever seriously lost a lawsuit.....meaning a huge payout? a) Not much. b) No. One thing is for certain. AMD's technical portfolio is as strong as I've ever seen it, with desktop, workstation, and server solutions more than a match for Intel. (They lag only in laptops, which is significant but nowhere near 100% of the market.) Yet AMD still seems to fall short of sales goals. For example, last year AMD predicted 10% market share for Opteron by that year's end. Right now, that share is still somewhere between 6-8%, depending on which statistics you focus on. In short, AMD isn't succeeding in turning a technical advantage into a business success. What's the explanation? AMD's management, Intel being an "evil monopoly," or some combination of both? It's obvious what I think, but what do you think? ;-) Tenchusatsu
