I like AMD's reference to the board game Monopoly on page 17. It's the same thing as real life, right? ;-)

All said, it sounds to me like AMD didn't find any evidence in the domestic discovery process, so now they are attempting to look abroad.

You realize of course, that the peice of paper you are flopping around is 3 months old? Many have moved on.

THE JUDGE DISMISSED 2/3RDS of the AMD complaint for foreign acts of anti-trust on the theory that if the act was a foreign act affecting foreign customers, the proper venue is some foreign court.

The are two rather twisted exceptions, 1- if the foreign act lost sales to domestic customers and 2-for lost sales of microprocessors from what I am guessing is flash from Austin, Texas which AMD doesn't make any more. [P Mot. to Compl. at p.3]

The court basically said, I know this is friggin minuscule but have at it. I don't want anybody to say we didn't give you every opportunity

BEFORE I RULE AGAINST YOU.
