I wonder if this was to avoid a judgement that might adversely affect Intel's chances against the NY anti-trust suit.
Regardless, it would be nice to just put the whole matter to bed.
Well done AMD
AMD had to win and the NY AG is not done with Intel yet...

now how long till Intel actually pays...
1.5 billion, not bad....i would assume payment would start almost immediately since it was a mutual agreement.....
i wonder, one time payment, or maybe a 5 or 10 year plan???? either way, not a bad little settlement for AMD's coffers...a nice little non taxable cash infusion.....
laterzzzz...........
Intel must pay within 30 days according to this report:
