the fundamental purpose of anti-competition law is to level the playing field, and not to prop up weaker competitors. A weak competitor was the measure of an unlevel playing field. By "leveling" it, Intel has only performed better and AMD worse. Maybe it wasn't so unlevel in the first place. Intel said AMD's woes were self inflicted. After all the "leveling", AMD did a swan dive into an empty pool. Only the Lawyers prospered from all the bickering, not the consumer. The Corporate ambulance chasers lined their pockets and that's about all that came out of it.
