I really hope that four weeks from today, when Atiq Raza appears and testifies in front of the FTC, that the issue of predatory pricing is raised. The current version of the cELERON is within 87% to 92% (depending on which set of benchmarks are used) of the performance of the pII. Yet it is priced at a fraction of pII pricing. It also costs more to produce than the pII. If iNTEL ran the rest of its operations with the margins (negative) that it suffers with the cELERON chips it would report losses that would dwarf those of AMD. iNTEL finances its unprofitable cELERON operations with the profits from other products. Their intent is obvious, they are trying to run their competition out of business. This is criminal activity albeit difficult to prove conclusively.

Regards,

DARBES
