    Sounds like Intel's IT Department didn't get the memo. I'm sure that's going to be part of his defense: "Your Honor, if my client had been taken offline when he gave his resignation, he would not had been tempted to download the documents. It's all Intel's fault!"

    Sounds like AMD's getting desperate having to resort to corporate espionage lol.

    Fat good it will do to AMD's already dwindling sales prospects.

    Even worse than that actually because the last quarter actually saw some improvement for the company. Now I wonder what will happen - panic can drive stocks down fast sometimes.
