All- re: EU action against Intel

This fortune magazine article is fresh off the press and is interesting. Apparently, Intel's Chuck Mulloy had something to say about it (check the bottom):

COMMENT FROM INTEL SPOKESMAN CHUCK MULLOY (7/29 at 1:26 pm) :
Two points: First, the Statement of Objection in no way changes the fact that AMD has been and continues to be the source of complaints about Intel’s business practices. There are no customers complaining, there are no consumers complaining. The microprocessor market is fiercly competitive and is functioning properly and consumers are benefiting.

Second, you might want to check some of the information you use for completeness, in particular those that come from AMD’s press releases. The Larach case against Dell and Intel was dropped in May of this year. You could have found that by checking court records in Austin instead of relying on AMD press releases and press statements.

CORRECTION/ADDENDUM (7/29 at 2:26 pm): Lerach and co-counsel asked that their suit against Dell be voluntarily dismissed without prejudice on April 24, 2007, explaining only that the investor group they represented “no longer intends to pursue the Complaint on behalf of the class.”

I like the fact that Intel's brass is no longer shying away from rebuking statements in public. Something I do not think they would do a few years back.

IMHO
