Opinionated Blog Video about Why I Anti-trust some companies like Microsoft, Intel, and Apple. AMD v. Intel antitrust lawsuit, filed by Advanced Micro Devices against Intel Corporation This is not the first time AMD has accused Intel Corp. of abusing their power as the leading manufacturer for X86 processors. In 1991, AMD filed an antitrust lawsuit against Intel claiming that they were trying to secure and maintain a monopoly, and one year later, a court ruled against Intel, awarding AMD US$10 million "plus a royalty-free license to any Intel patents used in AMD's own 386-style processor". Intel has agreed to pay AMD $1.25bn as part of a deal to settle all outstanding legal disputes between the two companies After a threat to withdraw support for Office for Mac, Apple agreed to make Internet Explorer the default browser over Netscape, and Microsoft agreed to continue developing Office and other software for the Mac for the next 5 years, purchase $150 million of Apple stock, and made a quiet payoff estimated to be in the US$500 million-$2 billion range Original video production by the www.OSGUI.com Tech Show.
