and that period coincided with the hight of Intel's anticompetitive practices. This allegation has never been demonstrated in a Court of Law. In fact, there is only one major Semiconductor manufacturer currently involved in an anti-trust investigation by the DOJ and it isn't Intel. If anything, you should be talking about AMD's anti competitive practices.

Joe, > Third, there was a pause, when Intel did temporarily regain performance lead, and that period coincided with the hight of Intel's anticompetitive practices. So it was just a coincidence, huh? Some might attribute AMD's losses to the fact that K7 was losing steam. But that can't be right, since you said yourself that "Intel took 6 years to catch up to K7/K8." Hence it must be Intel just being a big bad monopoly again, huh? By the way, there was indeed a recession when Bush entered office, but it only lasted the minimum three quarters and ended thanks to tax cuts and interest rates. Of course, we both know who dumped the recession right onto Bush's lap, but that's beside the point. Tenchusatsu
