Kevin, Re: "If a company is a monopoly in the legal sense, and it has used its monopoly power in an anticompetitive manner, then it has committed a violation." Well Kevin, the majority of AMD's "pain" has been caused by themselves ... For example, "manufacturing problems" pre-Xmas, "jacking up" the supply voltage on 400/450mhz parts, "manufacturing problems" post-Xmas, etc. There is no "legal guarantee" of a business surviving when it is incompetent. Many businesses go "under" every year. Make It So, Yousef
