Yup. Agreed. However, I also don't think it's wrong for Intel to be the overriding factor in AMD's decisions. As I've said before, AMD is the challenger, and it's natural for a challenger to try to knock off the king of the hill. -Z

There is a big difference between having AMD as a factor in Intel's decision making process, and what the AMDroids are arguing, which is that AMD is the only factor in Intel's decision making process. This is the point and I'm glad you made it. Yes the Competition was a factor in the decision but not because it was AMD. Intel would have done the same thing if the competitor was TI, MOTO or whoever. It was a business decision. AMDroids think Intel wouldn't have done the same thing if it was any other company. EP
