Ted, I think their mgmnt must not be good. Its pretty stupid to do another costly lawsuit esp. given INTC's track record with law suits. I also suspect their overall operating costs are higher than INTC's just because of the size difference.......INTC has greater economies due to its size. That probably forces AMD to discount their chips below what is good for their level of operations.

All very good points. However, why should a company with huge economies of scale, greater profit margins, and better management also resort to some of the "monopolistic practices" AMD and its advocates are accusing Intel of?

P.S. - I'm just playing "devil's advocate" here. Or "angel's advocate," depending on your point-of-view. <G> My personal feelings on this case are very strong, but you'll understand if I restrain myself, right?
