AMD Asks For Intel's Surrender (AMD)(INTC)

AMD is making a very big deal out of a federal court asking Intel to produce documents covering its communications with foreign PC makers.

AMD is making antitrust claims against Intel and Japanese authorities are looking into the matter as well.

It is nice, special really, that AMD and its attorneys will get to look at evidence from overseas, but since it is unclear that Intel has done anything wrong in either the US or overseas, the victory dance seems a bit premature.

AMD has had good success signing up new customers like Dell, and has made significant in-roads with server companies. AMD’s share in the server market has gone from 15.9% in Q3 04 to 23.3% in Q3 O6.

With increases like that for AMD, Intel must be bribing the customers.
