Hector says: Intel is a monopoly, Microsoft isn't

In a keynote address this morning to the American Antitrust Institute in Washington, AMD CEO Hector Ruiz gave attendees what he described as "an idea of what it's like to do business day in and day out when you are competing against an abusive monopolist." Although he also invoked the phrase "illegal monopoly," he left a convenient 846-word buffer zone between that phrase and his first invocation of the term "Intel."

XooMdifference is, janus DRM is supported by virtually every mp3 player that is not an iPod or a Zune, whereas fairplay DRM is exclusive to the iPod. Wish napster worked with your iPod? well, that's apple's fault.

Additionally, i think all current online music buying systems are completely atrocious. CDs FTW.
but napster can still sell music.

This really is a completely difference market, because the company itself isn't responsible for their products, instead the music companys are.

Distribution mechanism's aren't quite under the average "business" rules.

Whereas the Macbook just cleans the clock with every other laptop available. Because its designed well.
