Bill,

Regardless, AMD started this fight. Intel went for the kill.

Now AMD can supply about 32-35% flat out, so Intel could add $200 to each CPU and so would AMD. In a few years they would both make a bundle

First off, that would smell of collusion. Next, AMD would never be happy with the low ASP market place. Intel is a juggernaut to compete against. You can't directly compete against Intel's offerings, you have to indirectly compete.

Billy Ban - Re:"AMD came along a slight bit under Intel"

When the K6 was introduced Jerry "the Marketing Genius" Sanders brayed to the world that AMD would sell its processor 25% below Intel for an similar speed. AMD has continued to sell at about that level below Intel, plus or minus, ever since.

That is not a little bit !! What it produces are losses for 5 out of 6 years as AMD tries to put the "hurt" on Intel with its Jerryhad. Meanwhile, the AMDroids cheer loudly.
