Good post.

I think you're right on on the award of damages, puntives are on top of that.

Silly things like the Via balloons and the banner mentioned in the Complaint will resonate with the jury.

I don't see a summary judgment by Intel, maybe AMD. Yes, this will go to Appellate. If AMD is smart they will try to accelerate the case, Intel will try to bog it down. Normally delays involve discovery issues and it looks to me as though AMD already has a lot of what it needs to prove its case so Intel may be thwarted in that approach.

Even after Appellate I can't see this as being anything other than the biggest award in US history.

This could be one of the largest contingency fees ever.

If an outside law firm thinks AMD has a good case, they'd be willing to take it on contingency, which means the cost of this suit to AMD isn't necessarily an issue.
