The AMD complaint is full of quite specific allegations of "strongarming, bullying, intimidation" While these constitute hearsay and are legally inadmissible in a court of law, they do represent evidence that we can use to shape our expectations about the course of the litigation.

You have a different standard of what constitutes "evidence" than I do.

I have some personal expertise on the question of whether the alleged behavior is in fact illegal, and I am quite sure that it is. Indeed as we start to see legal precedent for the AMDs claims (did you see the 3M tape case someone referenced?) it will become clear just how laughable Intel defenders' claims about tough but fair competition are.

Clearly you have already made your determination without seeing any of the evidence (except AMD's hearsay) so there is no point discussing it any further with you. I will however wait to hear both sides of the story. That makes me rather unique here.
