AMD takes antitrust case to the masses

AMD launched an anti-trust lawsuit against Intel for “strong-arming major customers to accept exclusive deals.” AMD is taking the unusual step of using a public campaign asking consumers to “demand innovation.”

Well, congratulations AMD –- your campaign is working. After using four generations of AMD processors, I bought my first Intel chips -– a dual 3.2Ghz Xeon 7550i Alienware workstation. As your campaign says, I “demand innovation” –- not lawsuits against the competition.
