District Court of Intel monopoly case management conference meet, this meeting will help the court determine this in order to schedule the hearing of cases against monopoly.
The March 31, AMD is responsible for legal affairs and chief administrative officer, executive vice president Thomas M. McCoy antitrust case on an interview in Beijing, on the antitrust case, some of the key questions answered questions.
Thomas cited the beginning of 2005 the Japanese Fair Trade Commission issued a free report to show that Intel abused its monopoly position, the exclusion of the AMD. Thomas said that AMD has won some big customers, these customers also do business with Intel, so Intel will require the customer to terminate the transaction and AMD, Intel to cover the cost of the relevant market and promotion in exchange for in exchange for the processor absolute exclusion.
"From this perspective, is greatly limited the choices of customers, but also impede innovation and development of technology. From the consumer point of view, they have to pay a high price to buy a company controlled by the monopoly product. Our market share in Japan had once reached 26%, including Sony, Toshiba and other manufacturers are AMD's customers, but because of Intel's involvement, abuse their monopoly position, so that we share in Japan dropped by 12% within one year to 14%. "Thomas told reporters at the Japan Fair Trade Commission submitted this report, the EU began an investigation of the actions taken by Intel.
Last year, AMD sued Intel for monopoly case, Thomas is expected to end the formal session of 2007, "in Japan and the European Union into action, we in the United States filed a lawsuit to the court. Now we are both at the evidence stage, that is, two the company is collecting relevant documents, e-mail exchanges between companies and industry participants in the case, then we will ask the witness to provide testimony, interviews with them to understand the situation. "Thomas said, so far, AMD and Intel has not had any discussions on reconciliation. However, the monopoly charges against AMD, Intel publicly announced, and there is no way to change the intention of commercial operations.
Thomas said that in addition to Intel's monopoly of foreign prosecution, AMD did not stop the promotion of innovation, "AMD is a company attaches great importance to innovative companies, but AMD is based on market requirements for innovation, so customers are very concerned about, such as AMD in 64-bit technology, dual-core technology, energy consumption is a leader. Although AMD have achieved great success, but if Customer Shoudao other companies stress the words, AMD can be more successful. Intel Corporation to some extent to request customers to obey to him. In this way, customers will lose the opportunity to choose, not according to the amount they need to get products and prices, which is also the development of AMD had a negative impact. "
Thomas coming to China is an important task is to make contact with the Chinese government, Thomas said that AMD hopes both product design and product marketing can be an open, free competition, it all to the interests of customers. "We have to do is to make sure let everyone know that AMD is a very good partner, we have very good technology, it has a very good strategy. We say that innovation is the soul of competition, we hope the Chinese government to take action, I hope the world Governments of other countries to take action, it is not just the things, AMD, Geng is what the customer to make them freely to 杩涜 choice and innovation in free pair of 浠栦滑 conduct business processes and brand management, we must protect Zhe Yang 1 kind of competition, enabling customers to get the best technology to meet their needs and to obtain cost-effective products. "
In the interview, Thomas also praised the final in March this year, China's three major associations - Computer Industry Association, Software Association, computer users association released a joint initiative in the area of government procurement fair competition mechanism and proposals, "We hope that the Association initiative will ultimately get results. you know, the Chinese government institutions and government agencies around the world, just as much a consumer IT product side, so that should be taken in the government procurement process brand-neutral approach, product procurement standards should be product performance and price, that is good value for money, rather than the choice granted monopoly products. We are three associations in China appreciates the efforts made, I think they now do, and other countries similar associations to take action are the same, because they want the government as an IT consumer side will not hurt by the monopoly.
