  1. Comment - AMD Accuses Intel of Destroying Evidence in Antitrust Trial

    You logic is morally questionable - there is never a legitimate reason to destroy evidence. It's breaking the law.

    There is no evidence to support your claim whatsoever. A director making the connection between extending a standard and making it difficult for others to compete (done ~ten years ago) does not equal "a single clear principal - eliminate competition".

    The "operational principle" you speak of is made up by yourself.

    Microsoft has consistently stated that it welcomes competition. There is visible evidence to support this, in particular their efforts to promote standardisation of IP and systems interoperability.

    Microsoft will not survive without credible competition.

    I am interested in his opinion, and for the record I agree with him.

    There is far to much hate in this debate, and it colours everything.

    Get over the hate and we might have a more objective debate. For example, I'm still waiting for debate of single industry standards for very complex problems. SVG, CSS etc etc. This topic however, is simply not allowed to be mentioned.

    If we are going to compete with MS, we have to do better than insisting everything supports SVG.
