Chipmakers Advanced Micro Devices and Intel moved a little further along in their antitrust battle across two continents. During a case management conference Thursday in a U.S. District Court, AMD, which has sued its archrival under allegations of antitrust behavior, asked for a trial date in the first quarter of 2008, while Intel is seeking a trial date in September, 2008.

The documents were requested by AMD as part of its antitrust lawsuit against Intel in that country. The court will determine which portions of the investigation documents will be available for public disclosure during the court case.
