Intel has submitted papers to defend itself from the charges of the FTC concerning abuse of its dominant position. The company has chosen a rather aggressive angle of attack towards AMD. To make it short, it is not Intel that prevented the development of AMD, it is just that they are incompetent. To support these remarks, Intel has recalled many facts:
AMD was unable to develop a mobile platform worthy of its name.
The chairman of AMD, at the peak of their form in 2004 said than the company was pathetic to have sold processors and not the platforms.
He also said that objectively,he would not have bought AMD products…
If AMD really did not need anybody to destroy itself, why had Intel to recourse to so many stratagems to block them? They would certainly answer that they just wanted to protect the consumers to help them avoid buying bad products…
