If you want to see the power of monopoly in action, look at the enterprise market and how Intel is able to hold market shares despite their inferior products. Some corporates still blindly buy Intel.
- JonChesterfield 2y agoThat one is partly hardware refresh cycles. First gen epyc was a bit unknown and not totally compelling, was probably Rome that took the lead comprehensively. Then maybe five years to work through the pipeline of people having bought machines recently enough that they aren't replacing them yet. It's client where Intel is really pushing the boundaries of acceptable corporate behaviour. The laptop/corporate-desktop sector is very intel dominated despite the cpus being much worse for a long time, and that looks suspiciously like an influence over oems and retailers thing. Roughly what they were fined for doing a while back.
