[citation][nom]pooflinger1[/nom]So we should all support the prostitues since they have been screwed and continue to be screwed. I for one am rooting for intel. Not because I think they are right, and not because I like them, but because I don't want the EU to get a Damned cent. Lets see... How much of our recent economic downturn could be funded if those funds weren't stripped away from US companies... AND, last time I checked, the party trying to bribe was not the only guilty party. Last I checked it was also illegal to RECIEVE bribe money. So why aren't HP and Lenovo, etc included? Didn't they recieve money in order to take part? Kind of a messed up argument that you only prosecute or attempt to fine one side of the problem. Kinda like trying to play on the see-saw by yourself. just a bit unbalanced.[/citation]
Your argument is not even an argument. Of course the other intervening parties should be punished, not just Intel. But Intel should be punished. You don't actually make a point in your text.
Secondly, AMD is also a US company. In your vision, an american company can screw at will another american company, which could have funded your economic downturn in the first place had it not been screwed by Intel during the years AMD actually, objectively had the best processor.
If you like to buy other products to put in your computer case besides a CPU, you really should consider that a free market needs rules all over the world. I don't know if you can build a computer made from US made parts alone, but even if you could you would be severly restricted in your choice.
What happens in the US affects the rest of the world, and vice-versa. Remember how the current world crisis began ?
Competition is good for the consumers, and I presume that includes you. Unless you like to pay for an overpriced CPU, an overpriced GPU, etc.
Like I said elsewhere, lack of competition results in slow R&D, suboptimal products at high prices.
