Golfbum shut up pretty quick when I asked him what Intel taught its employees on the subject of "first dollar rebates."

I'm still waiting for an answer. So let me extend the question to anyone who has taken Intel's training. By Intel employee's silence, I am assuming that Intel did NOT teach that it was illegal, and therefore expect AMD to win the case on that ground alone, probably the most serious of all the charges in the suit.

Let me ask you a simple questions, GOLFBUM?

1. Do you believe it is legal for Intel to charge a price of $X for CPU's to a particular OEM in a quarter, but if the OEM buys more than N CPU's, the price for ALL CPU's in that quarter will go down by some number, Z?

2. What if instead of lowering the price, Intel agrees to subsidize marketing only if a certain number of CPU's are bought?
