But just remember, they play their own games with the OEMs too:
http://www.guru3d.com/news-story/amd-in ... urope.htmlSo while AMD makes self-serving press releases about how they are the sole protectors of FREEDOM in the GPU market, just remember that they have no problem jerking OEMs around to serve their own purposes too.
1- You may be making the binary assumption that those partisans against the GPP are all AMD Fanboys, or that by assuming a stance against something it means an automatic binary stance to the opposite of it.
1.5- My previous statement on this matter still stands- I withhold opinion on the GPP matter until I am able to have reliable evidence like a contract, with people willing to come on record, and having the accused the ability to rebut such claims.
2- You may have simply omitted anything having to do with GPP or AMD's alleged involvement. This cited article's information is able to stand on its own without GPP. GPP is irrelevent.
3- I would like to hear a more detailed explanation for this regional ban from AMD and its partners, specifically, this one that is affected.
4- I would like to also hear what are the charges against AMD? Are they for breaking a law? Being anti-competitive? I don't know, and I am curious to know and learn before I come to an informed conclusion based on logic, and evidence.
