If they think AMD can make a dent, they'll mark their chips down to be competitive (for whatever definition of competitive they use, which is probably supported by data, though it might not be YOUR definition). Poor Intel will have to deal with only 100% profit instead of the 300% or so they've become accustomed to. Intel got a knock out from AMD some 15 years ago. Enough people working at Intel still remember it will enough. This aspect of history is very unlikely to repeat or even to rhyme.
