The EU sues again.
I like AMD, but the EU trying to milk money out of Intel, I believe is more unethical than what Intel is doing.

Why would you not allow a company to prepare it's best defense against alligations?
It does not seem like justice to allow a company to bring charges and then fail to allow the defense to gather the proper documentation to refute the charges.
Justice should be blind when making a decision. The EU is very different from the USA.

This is not about justice, it's about keeping the EU funded via fines from successful US companies.

Shame on the EU!

The US government should intervene and maybe retaliate if necessary. Maybe sue SAP for possible antitrust violations?

Intel and Microsoft should tell the EU to **** off. Have fun and good luck switching all of your business to a different OS and partnering up with a different, much inferior, chip maker. Maybe a message like that would get the EU to stop trying to bully around American companies.

Once you're a multinational, there is no Us vs. Them. Boycott the EU? Do you think Microsoft and Intel are there out of charity?

What a bunch of Sarah Palin voters!
