Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD)

Its not about monopoly!

Intel got off the 1998 FTC investigation because the commisioners were unsure if the monopoly label would stick. It was close.

This time you're talking about Clayton Act violations and breaches of the CA Business & Professions Code. THESE DO NOT REQUIRE A FINDING OF MONOPOLY.

Get it clear, if AMD has even 1% of what I think they have they can walk this case through a jury. IMHO Intel is in dire jeopardy here and I see no defense (and I know the Civil Code & CCP rather well)

The damages will be substantial. I estimate, before punitives, $10bn

Good luck listening to Intel senior management.
