No chance of a court case like this in the UK.
AMD could have marketed the fpu as additional cores turning the 8 core into a 12 core. Our advertising standards agency probably would have asked them to add the gpu cores too & then banned Intel and others from marketing likewise. It's what they did with ADSL vs Cable, permitting cable to be advertised as fibre whilst banning FTTC being advertised as fibre when the cable offering is essentially FTTC. virgin have never and have no plans to roll out fibre to the home, their system uses coax cable from the cab in the street.
