Also Dell's financial recovery after adding AMD products would indicate that Intel's monopolistic practices were harming even their most loyal customer. I'd chalk that up as a double whammy in AMD's favor, not a point gained for Intel.

Petz, > Intel announced that they were changing their marketing tactics and would make everyone pay the same price. When did they say that? Otellini himself was on record saying that, despite the lawsuit, he's not changing any of Intel's business practices. > A couple months later, DELL announces AMD in everything. THis is de-facto proof that DELL was getting loyalty rebates and when they disappeared, DELL stopped being loyal. If this were true, AMD would have made a big deal over it. Remember that the lawsuit is also their PR campaign, so they would NOT keep this so-called "smoking gun" a secret ... Tenchusatsu
