<Yet you don't see Intel's acts as intimidation and extortion. What the EU is doing is breaking up a cartel.... because you walked into a council meeting and shot dead two officers, the DPW head, an alderwoman and a alderman. The government is intimidating you by pointing guns at you and telling you to put your hands up, arresting you, puts you on trial, finds you guilty, forces you to pay the fine and throws you in jail. Sure they should intimidate you, extort a fine from you, kidnap you and imprison you. That's what we pay them to do, ...lock up and fine murderers and intimidate others from doing the same...">> WOW .... you got me there! Thank you for clearing up my stupid misconceptions relating to Volume discounts,Exclusivity incentives, Help with advertising, help with system technology etc. etc. You are a treasure and enlighten us.

Pete, I live in St. Louis, a few minutes from Kirkwood. Please stay on topic and please refrain from using such analogies. I know you didn't mean to offend, but let's stick to the facts. I think they are compelling enough to AMD's benefit not to reduce the dialogue to mass murder and talk of senseless violence to make a point. It's your choice and free speech, but staying on topic and having rational dialogue is what makes this forum of use. Back to lurking and sorry to everyone for the bother. Tim
