I asked for your opinion, and you refused.

let Congress change the rules, but not retroactively

The LePage case changed the rules in the US in 2003 and the JFTC case changed the rules in 2005. Intel is living in the past.

Intel's team of anti-trust lawyers thought it was legal when they instructed Intel how to structure their contracts. How people here can be so dumb as to think Intel acted in a vacuum is beyond me. The contracts were structured by the best legal experts in the business.

You remind me of a losing Football team arguing about a certain formation in the middle of the game. The leading team was told it was legal but you are arguing if it should be legal. You want the game stopped and points awarded to you so the game will be "fair". If you don't get at least a 30% Score Segment Share then you're sure the other team is cheating. I think you will find out that the "formation" was perfectly legal and like it or not Intel played by the rules. If the rules turn out to be unfair in the true sense of the word then let Congress change the rules, but not retroactively.


It's more like the Intel band assumed victory and was parked in the middle of the field and then you complain when the game is extended due to a foul on the last play.
