Remember that Intel got their advantage by sabotaging AMD around 2009. They illegally bribed OEMs into not using AMD chips when AMD was ahead.

It's no wonder this company that can only use dirty tricks to get ahead turns out to be ran by israelis.

Intel stuck with $1.45 billion fine in Europe for unfair and damaging practices against AMD

The EU found, in part:

That Intel paid rebates to manufacturers on the condition that they would buy all (Dell) or nearly all of their CPUs from Intel.
That it paid retail stores rebates to only stock x86 parts.

That it paid computer manufacturers to halt or delay the launch of AMD hardware, including Dell, Acer, Lenovo, and NEC

That it restricted sales of AMD CPUs based on business segment and market. OEMs were given permission to sell higher percentages of AMD desktop chips, but were required to buy up to 95% of business processors from Intel. At least one manufacturer was forbidden to sell AMD notebook chips at all.
