But the contract was something like this:
Don not sell AMD products and you will get rebates with our products. Thats not a legal contract and this is what everything is about.
Problem? They got a huge GAIN with this. Please, research a bit :)
edit - from the source:
In addition to providing rebates to manufacturers that bought almost entirely Intel products, the Commission found that the chipmaker had paid them to postpone or cancel the launch of specific products...
They gave rebate under the condidtion not to build/sell AMD powered PC´s. Now if that is fair competition, there must be something wrong with your mind :eek:
What info, you just ranted about that download thing. And point is - its great that MS is extending the downloads and also itsn ot MS fault if your isp is blocking a microsoft mail (lol?)
You could get the iso and a key till 24th - learn to read please. Its still amusing how people interpret funny stuff in things because there is somewhere microsoft in the text :banghead:
This article (german) points out there are some power consumtion improvements, but the performance is screwed somehow. I strongly believe they ran the test wrong or something.
I dont get it, you are comparing the new unlocks to BF2? Cmon, think further. Valve is adding new "Gameplay" with these weapons instead of just "weapon stats" like BF2.
