Intel Corporation and Advanced Micro Devices (NYSE: AMD) today announced a comprehensive agreement to end all outstanding legal disputes between the companies, including antitrust litigation and patent cross license disputes. (…) Intel will pay AMD $1.25 billion.
Majoritatea acuzatiilor anti-trust si de comportament abuziv au venit de la AMD. Se pare insa ca principalul rival al Intel nu mai vede acum nicio problema 
AMD will drop all pending litigation including the case in U.S. District Court in Delaware and two cases pending in Japan. AMD will also withdraw all of its regulatory complaints worldwide.

Decat sa o lungeasca prin procese interminabile, AMD a facut o miscare buna. Daca Intel accepta plata acelei sume isi recunoaste tacit mare parte din acuzatii legate de anumite practici din trecutul nu foarte indepartat.
Eu nu zic ca nu-i asa. Si Intel isi asuma o parte din vina. Dar AMD vorbea despre o lupta “pina la moarte” de o cruciada “contra raului”. Si cum a aparut o discutie despre bani, imediat declara ca nu mai au “nicio obiectie”.
