Intel Lawyer: AMD Seeking Protection From Competition; Issues Response To AMD Suit; Chipmaker comes out hard against claims by rival AMD that Intel coerced PC firms.(INTERNET & TECHNOLOGY)
Byline: JAMES DETAR
Intel answered the call to legal battle Thursday, issuing a formal response to an antitrust suit by archrival Advanced Micro Devices.
Intel uses many arguments. In the 63-page document -- larger than AMD's original suit -- Intel went through each claim one by one, and denied each. AMD filed the suit June 27, in U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware.
"AMD is seeking protection from competition and seeking, in some way, to restrain Intel from offering discounts to our customers," Intel General Counsel Bruce Sewell said in an interview Thursday. Intel said much the same in its official filing.
The two companies have fought before in court, and again the stakes are high: whether Intel will continue to dominate the PC chip market. An AMD win would likely boost its share of this lucrative market.
Unlike many tech suits, this one doesn't involve theft of intellectual property, copyright or trademark. Rather, AMD accuses Intel of bullying its customers to make sure they do not buy chips from AMD.
Not so, says Intel. "The answer to AMD is very simple," Sewell said. "AMD is the victim and beneficiary of their own business decisions and their own reputation in the market, for better or worse."
