Counterpath and Intel partner - AMD in the cold?

March 6, 2006


First we had Skype doing a deal with Intel to optimize Skype for Intel processors and now we have Counterpath, formerly XTen, doing a deal with Intel to optimize their softphone client for the Intel processors. I wonder if AMD will file an antitrust lawsuit against Counterpath like they have done as a result of the Skype/Intel relationship? AMD is basing their lawsuit on a feature in Skype 2.0 that enables the ability to make 10-person conference calls only with Intel dual-core processors.

    SkyPE has not optimized the code for iNTEL processors as the Maxxuss hack has proven- it only does a CPUID call.
