The trial for Advanced Micro Devices' five-year-old antitrust suit alleging that competitor Intel unfairly manipulated the chip market has been delayed until February 2010. The trial was previously scheduled for April 2009, AMD spokeswoman Hollis Krym, said Friday.

AMD is accusing Intel of using illegal subsidies in order to coerce 38 companies in North America, Asia, and Europe to use its products, in some cases threatening retribution if those companies used or sold AMD products.

Intel said in March 2007 it may have lost internal e-mail needed as evidence for the trial. Recent court documents show that Intel is still hunting for internal e-mail.

Oops, did I just delete something?? Its insane that a resolution is going to be a minimum of 2 years out.

Rock on AMD!

i see more hope in VIA than AMD =/

Other way, I think. Everything Intel puts out kicks ass all over the place, but AMD is still alive and kicking. VIA, on the other hand, has essentially been treading water for the last four quarters. Their latest CPU (VIA NANO) failed to generate much excitement in the industry, and it's been more or less the same story with the previous three or four CPU releases they've done; VIA puts something out, nobody cares.
