And you're a retired Intel sales guy who has never contributed anything to this thread.

If you are an expert on dealing with Japan, you know that with Intel being guilty of violating Japanese law, Intel has lost face, and Intel is now viewed with shame and disgrace in Japan.

"You clearly have little experience working with Japanese firms."

But the listed scenario ignores the virtual certainty that one or more of those customers were behind the investigation in the first place. The JFTC, being the organization they are, would not have investigated the case to the level that they did if one or more of the larger Japanese companies weren't behind the complaint. And no, the Japanese arm of AMD doesn't count. Sony, Fujitsu or NEC would.
