No silly.
Who's silly? Do you deny writing this?
the answer is yes AMD did surge ahead of Intel. Intel had a better Threaten & Bribe Department.
When AMD has better products they prosper. When AMD has worse products they suffer. It's really not very complicated.
How is this not an admission that when "AMD did surge ahead of Intel", it was due to "having better products?"

You cannot escape your own words, Elmer. You've lied so many times you can't tell your ass from your elbow.

Who wrote this: And AMD was prospering, with their Hammer products that were widely acknowledged to be superior to Intel's long-in-the-tooth, reactionary, marketing-driven architectures.

By what measure were they superior?
Why, by their widely acknowledged, phenomenal performance in the marketplace. Which YOU directly attributed to their "having better products."

What better judge of products' merits, than its performance in the marketplace*? As you (and I, but you block it out) always say, customers take into account all of the attributes of competing products when making their purchasing decisions (including huge gobs of improperly-accounted-for "rewards" for "loyalty.")

Are you going to now tell me that the companies who were driving AMD's phenomenal performance were all wrong, and only Dell was right?

Please, PLEASE do! Prove that I'm wrong using DELL's unique profitability! PRETTY PLEASE.

Note that everything I've written in this post is based solely on your own admissions.
