Niceguy, Agreed, but, once again, a judgment can be worded to convey such a message to Dell without being explicit and without binding Dell. (Moral suasion comes to mind.) I would like to see all of Intel's packaged chips sold through a court apppointed trust until Intel comes up with a plan of fairness. Probably too simplistic.

NG, Re: "Unless I'm mistaken, whatever the resolution of AMD's antitrust suit against Intel, it will not bind any OEMs because they are not parties to the case." Agreed, ------------ Message 21517371 ------------ Do not forget that Dell has had verbage in their contracts with Intel which indemnified them against Intel's past wrong doings. CPQ, HP did not. ------------ Dell well knows who Intel is screwing. They've in the past demanded and got that kind of contract. I expect them to do so for a while in the future. -tgp
