INTEL FINED: $1.45 Billion Dollars

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/8047546.stm


I am so glad I just bought $2k in AMD a few months back

 

I've run AMD since my final Intel CPU purchase back around 2000, as I have found Intel to be prohibitively expensive for what their products have to offer.

I recall the only, and last Intel processor I purchased for myself in a PC was Socket 423.

We all remember how great a socket and chipset THAT was.

We'll see what happens after the appeal...

 

Business as usual. rolleyes Thing is the consumers always pay for it in the end because I don't believe for a second that Dell etc would have passed the cost savings to their customers.

 

Wow --- that's scary! So --- this EU commission can pocket money from anyone they see fit?

 

I'm sure there will be the oppurtunity for persons to recover some funds, like the fourteen dollar average from the microsoft suit.
