1. Comment - AMD Curious About Reported $10M Intel 'Discovery Management Program'

   (Apr 12, 2007 - 10:11 AM)

   Foxfyre still does not realize the true reason for this legal battle. It is not only to find something that can hold intel accountable for its past actions, but also to continuously keep a legal check on intel and make them super cautious before they even think of using unfair means to hurt AMD or any other competitor. Intel is a classic example of a MONOPOLY, there is no denying that fact. Would you honestly think that AMD got its success with the opteron only due to its technical advantage over the xeons? one would be naive to assume that. AMD had to make sure that Intel did not come down with a heavy hand to crush this beautiful product that is truly good in its own way. I know how protective I'd have to be of a creation of mine if I had a merciless adversary like Intel. Hence the legal front. If you think AMD is going to benefit itself by not spending on its legal department, you are more imbecile than I thought, because the fact of the matter is the exact opposite. Without the continuous legal pressure and the eye of the justice department over Intel, no kind of super product from AMD would be sufficient to keep Intel from crushing it. That's my 2 cents on this report.
