AMD executives admitted its chips were inferior
 

According to the PDF, which has several pieces of the testimony blanked out, or "redacted", Richard Henri, executive VP at AMD, said that looked through objective eyes, "you would never buy AMD". He added: "I certainly would never buy AMD for a personal system if I wasn't working here." He described AMD as "pathetic" because it sold processors rather than platforms. AMD, he continued, "is saddled with a reputation that 'we're cheap, less reliable, lower quality consumer type product".
