fyo, "AMD cannot trade LDT for SSE2 or anything else. It's a free, (relatively) open standard. "
I'm not a lawyer, but I believe AMD would prohibit Intel from using the HT trademark in any of their advertising. Also, if Intel is not a member of the consortium which will eventually form to mediate changes/improvements to HT, Intel will always be one step behind.

Its a similar situation with SSE2 - Intel cannot prevent AMD from using the instruction set, they can only prevent AMD from calling it SSE or SSE2.
