Slick - Re: " Intel is using their Xeon profits to try and drive AMD out of business. Do you dispute this statement? "

How did AMD get 15% of the retail market?

They undercut Intel's pricing structure.

In a competitive economy, which this is, Intel cut its prices to maintain and regain market share. Nothing wrong with that - is there?

We are living in a free country - are we not?

If AMD then has to cut their own prices - and lose money - well, that's the breaks.

AMD has the smaller die, right? They should still make a profit, right?

If they can't make a profit, then maybe something is WRONG with their cost structure.

Have you discusssed AMD's die costs with anyone at AMD ?
