what a joke, you can't beat intel so you pull the "antitrust" card...shame on you! :|


FYI, antitrust is illegal. They're not just complaining, they're pointing out that Intel is breaking the law by using anticompetitive practices.

Yeah seriously, if a person or company is BREAKING THE LAW, who gives a **** about "timing" or "card playing". Antitrust card in desperation? Listen buddy, if you break the law, you should get punished, they've been saying this for years but now have enough sources and proof to back it up. You don't just keep something like this silent, what kind of criminal are you?

to me, it's about being a good businessman or a bad one...and AMD is being a bad one...

if Intel is so bad, why aren't all the senior execs behind bars? This is the same argument with M$

It's like all the weak minded businessman want to do is ask mommy and daddy to solve their problems for them...

if Intel plays dirty? play on their level, don't go crying to you mommy about it.

:|

Stop posting. Now. You have zero idea of what is really going on in this world. How can AMD use the same tatics of intel when intel has probably 20x the cash reserves and resources compared to AMD? They don't have the money to do that, and its wrong anyways.

Ah, playground politics at it's finest I see. When you see something bad happening, like Jimmy beating up little Susie, you can't dare "snitch", because that's not manly. RAWWRR!!!!

Then how come the best CPU's in the world have been consistently lagging in benchmarks for the last few years?

I have both AMD and Intel systems. They both run fine, but the AMD is certainly faster.

Oh Em Gee. I really hope you're being sarcastic.

Oh yeah. Instead of just flaming the idiots and trolls, I should add something (more) constructive.


AMD. Take the money you make from this (assuming you win) and build another damn FAB!

We can pretty much look at this and realize the extent that Intel has been misleading the world. Here is average joe, he thinks Intel processors are BEST IN THE WORLD!, how can Intel lose? Has this person ever seen the two go head to head? Likely not, otherwise he wouldn't have said this. He doesn't get a chance to see COMPETITION because his company is illegally blocking it. That's not what this great country is founded upon. I happen to love capitalism - when it works. For it to work, you need these anti-trust laws in place to block the Intels of the world.

FUD works extremely well on people with no critical thinking skills. "Intel's the best because AMD crashes all the time!!11"

They should spend less money on bribes and more money on making their processors better. I think I started hating intel after the Prescott first came out.

If Intel gets in trouble for doing all that, why won't the other companies also get in trouble for taking part? It takes two...

Do you have any idea what the word "morals" or the word "legality" mean? If I walk over to your house and beat your ass, take your sh!t, are you going to call the police? Hell yeah you will! Are you a wuss "crying to mommy and daddy" for doing that? No! (well maybe you are a wuss if I can beat your ass, but thats besides the point.)

Stop being a clueless moron.

The lawsuit doesn't claim that Intel is murdering anyone. It claims that Intel is using illegal business practices. Those practices are against the law. Because they're illegal. Do you get it yet? Can you understand?

I already own both....I've owned both since AMD started...the part that pisses me off is that they're resulting to cry babies instead of developing better strategies to increase their bottom line.

THey developed a better product and their bottom line is being harmed by Intel's illegal business practices. What part about this can't you understand? Are you denying the legitimacy of antitrust laws?
