Nachdem AMD am vergangenen 28. Juni diesen Jahres eine kartellrechtliche Klage gegen die Intel Corporation eingereicht hat, äußert sich der Chipriese nun zu den Anschuldigungen. Hierzu die passenden Zitate aus der heutigen Pressemeldung.
Innovation, investment, customer focus and great products have led to Intels success over the years. These are the things that have been fundamental to our decision making as we´ve sought to move the industry and the pace of technology forward. so Bruce Sewell, von Intel.
Likewise, AMD has made its own business decisions and choices that have determined its position in the marketplace. Yet, with its lawsuit, AMD seeks to instead blame Intel for the many business failures AMD has experienced that are actually a direct result of AMDs own actions or inactions.
AMDs choices and behaviors with respect to each of these core principles over the period covered by the complaint provide a compelling answer to the allegations it has made in this case.
AMDs complaint presents a case study in legal dissonance. Although AMD has purportedly brought its complaint to promote competition, its true aim is the opposite. Under the cover of competition law, AMD seeks to shield itself from competition. AMD seeks to impede Intels ability to lower prices and thereby to allow AMD to charge higher prices. AMDs colorful language and fanciful claims cannot obscure AMDs goal of shielding AMD from price competition.
