Given your historical inability to adopt AMD's perspective even for the sake of hypothetical discussion

Apparently you've missed the fact that we have been discussing the hypothetical. The string of absurdities required for AMD's charges to be true are what invalidates the hypothesis in the first place.

Intel must be inherently evil to hatch such a diabolical plot.

Intel must have a corporate policy of encouraging, directing and supporting illegal activity on a world wide basis.

Intel must enlist either the willing cooperation of all the world's major OEMs in the exclusion of AMD products, or their unwilling cooperation by the use of threats, intimidation, coercion or other forceful means.

Those major OEMs must conspire with Intel (again be it willingly or unwillingly) to hide their illegal activity from the justice system.

The legal filings by major International companies to keep their confidential information confidential are examples of their fear of the exposure of their conspiracy with Intel.

The filings by one of AMD's major customers to quit searching for a smoking gun where none exists is proof they are part of Intel's conspiracy.

The expectation that the introduction of an advanced CPU architecture (Opteron) would immediately be welcomed with open arms by both all the world's OEMs and customers, despite AMD's complete lack of experience in the server market space and their terrible track record of delivering to schedule. Any time lag between the publishing of Opteron datasheets and major MSS wins can be explained purely in terms of the above listed worldwide conspiracies conducted by threats of retaliation from Intel. The fact that not one single company has stepped forward to corroborate AMD's charges is further proof of the extent to which Intel has spread fear throughout the world community.

The above combination of absurdities required is just too silly to seriously entertain. The alternative is much simpler and requires nothing more that common sense. AMD's management is and has been incompetent.
