Somehow I can't feel sorry for Intel, because they put themselves in that position - in fact - they even prepared the ground to be in that position, so wasn't just "luck", was a strategy. Anti competitive practices that put AMD on a tight spot, that could have rolled over at any time. Milking their comfortable position with high margin products, due to a choked out competitor and marketing deals. They had it coming.
