Did you pay attention to my posts, if your reasoning, were gospel, Intel would have went bankrupt a long time ago. Like, I said would AMD ever introduce a CPU that can't divide right, if they had would they see the light of day. Pentiums were hard pressed to be found originally, but Intel isn't said to be unreliable. If this BX shortage is true, that means Intel can't meet demand of its best selling chipset, that means we should be calling them unreliable. But people aren't, they have biased, AMD's track record is much better than Intel's, but Intel has spent alot of advertising money to say other wise.
Perception is everything.
Intel would be getting screwed. And you would realize AMD has been delivering, your just not excepting. No, you're just concerned about truth and justice, I'm concerned about processor prices and performance, things buyer care about. If you want to defend AMD, it should be along those grounds, not based on percieved market unfairness. Well Pickle, Me, you or some other nobody can get away with saying intel is using strong arm tactics.
