RE <<<I understand this argument and I don't agree with it. When AMD entered the market with the K6 they attacked Intel's position. They undercut Intel's prices. In economic terms, this was an act of aggression. They sought to capture market share by assulting Intel's position. Intel reacted to that aggression. They fought back. That's what competition is all about. In the people's republic market share is distributed in a more fair manner. Here you have to compete for it.>>> If you really understood the argument, then you would not have written the balance of the paragraph. The last thing I am proposing his socialism. However it is behavior predicated on greed that often leads constituencies to opt for socialism. As for intc, there are so many choices open to it...that to choose a bash and trash approach is chicken sh*t. While intc gets that it needs to expand into other areas, it does not understand that it does not have to steam roll everything in its path.
