Intel must DIE!!!!!Intel must DIE!!!!!Posted Apr 16, 2006 5:05 UTC (Sun) by genius (guest, #19981)Parent article: ccPublisher gets a GNU outlook on cross-platform availability (NewsForge)
In the complaint filed June 27 in U.S. District Court in Delaware, AMD alleges that the six distributors received financial or other pressure from Intel, including one claim that a high-ranking Tech Data executive "turned down $1 million to stop doing business with AMD, which caused the Intel representatives to ask 'How much would it take?' "
Other allegations in the lawsuit include Ingram Micro backing out of an AMD distribution deal in China because Intel offered very aggressive loyalty rebates, Synnex signing an exclusive deal to only carry Intel processors, Intel reducing ASI's market development funds after achieving master distributor status with AMD, Intel threatening to cut off Avnet if it sold AMD Opteron server chips, and Intel pressuring Supercom customers to switch to another distributor.

*looks down at shiny dual-Opteron that replaces the dual-Athlon-MP*
The only Intel CPU I'm running is a Pentium-60 in an old AT&T Globalyst. Otherwise, I've got four AMD CPUs and one PPC on my network.. (Not counting whatever's in my Linksys.)
Swerving carefully towards a tangential topic that could be misconstrued as on topic... I need to read up more on the Creative Commons licenses. So far, I've produced a fair bit of technical documentation, some artwork and other non-code things that have been tied to a code base, so I've used the GPL to cover the entire work. But really, the non-code portions deserve a different license.
I guess a tool like this may be useful for publishing such content, once I factor it out from the code?
