This is proof of Intel's bribing customers. AMD says their parts are better and the customers should be buying them instead of Intel's.
The article was about Ivy Bridge. Didn't you bother to read it?
I'm paraphrasing AMD here but the jest of it: "AMD says their parts are better and the customers should be buying them instead of Intel's."
There's all the proof you need. AMD said so. Bribery doesn't always come in the form of money. Intel is bribing customers with superior value. If it weren't for the bribe, the customers wouldn't be buying the Intel product. That's a bribe. Customers change their behavior in return for something offered to them, when they wouldn't change their behavior otherwise. Usually it's money that gets them to change their behavior, but Intel, in another attempt to destroy AMD, has resorted to a more diabolical scheme. They've offered something AMD isn't in a position to match. |
