It's called long-term thinking, HopperJF. You may temporarily happy paying artificially low prices, but Intel were trying to drive a competitor out of the market. Competition is good for customers, price rigging is NOT!

If Intel were to succeed in driving AMD and all other competitors out of the market, I can assure you, a 150% to 1588% price mark-up would seem like a bargain!

You should be thanking the EU for preventing market dominance because that would be when prices would go through the roof. And you and I could do absolutely nothing about it. The EU were doing a good job, for a change. :crazy:
