Re: Dumping is against the law. Intel can ill afford to try that. Even if they did and managed to eliminate nVidia and AMD, do you think card makers don't know what Intel would do once the competition was gone? If Microsoft can take a $1.26 billion loss on XBox in a year and Intel can lose $120 million/quarter on flash then why not? They would claim it was due to significant barriers to entry and a competitive marketplace. Intel wouldn't have to try eliminating both NVIDIA and AMD from the market...just AMD. AMD could still be in the GPU business with Fusion while cutting discrete losses by playing a much smaller role in that market.
