Intel Corp (INTC)

Re: Conclusion: This entire claim is trying to show that AMD is directly tied to these HP-Intel agreements and Intel forced these agreements on HP. Almost everything in this claim is conjecture, clever wording, and AMD's opinion. Nothing is proven. It is just as likely that any one of the scenarios I have brought up can explain away what really happened, as AMD's allegations. Anyone of the above points, if considered by a judge or jury, can sway them to Intel's side.

You've summed it up rather well. The problem with the 'Droids is that this has been their #1 conspiracy theory for years, and that makes it easy for them to equate a claim as a fact. It's like all the 'Droids have been sucked into the Matrix at once and are thoroughly convinced of the outcome. IMO, this case is like any other case. One party feels slighted and they make a list of claims to be dissected and analyzed in court. The only sleazy thing about AMD is that they made it all a PR spectacle, because even they hardly believe their case is winnable, and would rather win in the court of public opinion (as Tenchu has so cleverly said in past posts).
