Process Boy :

re >>This smacks of price fixing, which I believe is illegal, if it is for the explicit mutual benefit of two "competitors". Try again.<<

I believe if Intel independently determines to raise prices without colluding with Amd to do so that would be perfectly legal. However, it does break one of the most basic tenets of business:

Never give a sucker an even break!!

Process boy, so when they cut the price that fixes them at a low price?
My comment was an example of the power a rich monopolist has to destroy a lesser competitor. I say monopolist in the highest frequency markets, like the P-III or P-II-500, as they have had their profits in the low end destroyed by AMD and Cyrix(yes I know Paul, billions and billions served)
