They have been hammering away at American companies for crap-assed excuses for the past 5 years now. Hey, I'm Italian, but the EU will never be another USA, even if they think they can level the playing field by extorting money out of American companies. Sure the EU mentality is no copyright on intellectual goods and yada yada, but that's because they're running in second place and it only helps them.<br>C'mon. Time to slap their hands for getting too greedy.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Technophile]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 8th 2008 5:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Intel (of course) fights back against EU's antitrust charges]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/intel-of-course-fights-back-against-eus-antitrust-charges/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/08/intel-of-course-fights-back-against-eus-antitrust-charges/</guid><description><![CDATA[Grrr. It never ends. Intel and M$ should GTFO of the EU, and let them crumble without tech. Let them ALL learn to use linux with AMD Servers running their internet... lol. Hell, maybe intel should go ahead, kill off AMD, and then when they are sued, not pay the fine and leave the EU in the 1960's. <br><br>The EU and NAFTA are terrible things indeed...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spectre]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 16th 2008 10:50AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
