Petz I think you are missing 2 very important points from your list. 3)) Trying to push a technology (rambus) down our throats which will have given us small increases in performance at exorbitent prices but greatly enhancing their pocket book. When will enough be enough for Intel? How high do the margins have to go? Couldn't Craig have possibly squeezed by on $300 mu. and saved Intel the embarrassment of Rambus. 4)) Using lawyers and threats to keep competitors out of market; eg Via and mobo makers. How many business want to be controlled by their supplier. Whats the difference between what Intel is doing and the mob hitting on business by controlling labor unions. Yes I know one is legal and ones not, but what Intel is doing is legal only because the lawyers make the laws, and therefore define whats legal and whats not.
