FPG, from the article you linked to:

> "To a large extent, AMD seeks recovery under U.S. antitrust law for lost sales of its foreign-made microprocessors to foreign companies in foreign locations," Intel said in court documents. "Much of AMD's claimed injury boils down to this contention: AMD was allegedly injured when its sales offices in Paris, Munich, Surrey, Beijing, Osaka, and other foreign countries failed to sell more of its German-manufactured microprocessors to French, German, British, Chinese, Japanese, and other foreign customers. AMD cannot invoke the U.S. antitrust laws to attempt to address these alleged harms that occurred (if at all) outside the United States."

Seems like Intel was pretty specific in the claims they wanted to exclude. You're just making overgeneralizations.

P.S. - I'm going to enjoy watching you advocate double-jeopardy ...

fpg: Come again?

What do you mean, come again? Foreign claims are not pertinent to US law. They may be in the future if the countries try to consolidate AT laws based on global economies, but that is nowhere near a reality. AMD is trying to bring this to the case and it has been disallowed.
