<So Intel is guilty of anti competitive practices on the face of it. There can be no defence, they want to kill AMD, and they might still do it if the DOJ hides it's head much longer.> JMHO, but did'nt AMD and Jerry say in public that the success/failure of the company hinges on how well they( AMD ) can execute, without regard to Intel. It is their decision making and execution that will ultimately lead to their success or failure. BTW, it may be a little too premature to throw in the towel just yet if you are a true believer in AMD. JMHO. Good luck to all. SK

Bill - Re: "AMD would also make another $100 differential and would have made a profit had Intel kept the price high. " Regardless of Intel's motives, AMD screwed themselves. The DOJ will need to investigate AMD's yield problems and Intel's spectacular yields and will conclude AMD shot itself in the brain. Back to Intel's motives - they paid off today! Your percentage ownership in AMD is going down. On the brighter side - Sanders will be providing some extra shares for albert and Petz and Brian and Ali to suck up. It's a good way to make every body richer! Paul
