However, Intel chief executive Paul Otellini declined to share any specifics of that evidence in a conference call about the case. [...] Otellini declined to provide details of the evidence supporting Intel. "Whatever we say will be in court," he said. Of course, it's too much to ask for you to apply that skeptical attitude to Intel too, right? As for your pining for evidence, More details are expected shortly when the EC publishes on its Web site the complete 542-page document of its findings. Don't let that stop you from continuing to hang your hat on that Intel-provided hook in the meantime. fpg

Re: Note that we do not have access to those alleged emails or testimony. Oh Elmer, give it a rest. Asus was afraid to allow any indication it made a board supporting Athlon onto its web site. It had to ship the boards in plain white boxes and not offer support. Supermicro did pretty much the same thing. This had to hurt sales, so why did they do it? Maybe these companies were run by psychotic imbeciles (the tin foil hat version of the universe) or maybe Intel was using extortion to block AMD's access to markets (everyone else's conclusion).
