# Intel Monopoly Tosses AMD a boneJim 2010-12-10 00:09
Since we all know (from the subpoenaed Intel documents) that Intel uses bribes and coercion to dictate how many AMD-based products a computer manufacturer can produce, I think it's so sweet that Intel decided to let MSI buy a few processors from AMD!

Intel's logo should be changed to "unethical yet occasionally nice monopoly inside"!
