Paul and Scumbria,

Ok, but what about the very real possibility that AMD will go bankrupt? Who's lining up to purchase AMD?

Also, the highest margin products that Intel produces are in the market segment where there is the most competition, and where Intel's market share has the most room to grow, the server market. How could the government legitimately regulate Intel's chip prices and not Sun's?

Chris

I urge you to read your anti-trust law again. Tell me one monopoly that has its prices regulated by the federal government, and I'll tell you 10 that are not regulated. You have to pass a federal statute to "regulate prices" like the CAB and FCC used to do. Do you think anyone will pass price regulation on a company that cuts its prices on identical goods by 35-50% a year?
