Dell and AMD

I know Intel must be offering Dell great incentives to purchase exculsively Intel. But, I've heard that the Dell ignore of AMD goes deeper than that. Seems back when Dell was first getting started, AMD shunned Dell.

Is there any truth to that or is it just a business decision to stay exculsively Intel?

Maybe this is one of the reasons AMD has brought Anti-trust charges against Intel in a legal suit. In the past, every lawsuit AMD has persude against Intel, from what I recall, AMD wins. So, if AMD keeps on with the same historical trend, AMD should win this suit with Intel as well.

I'd be interested to hear any comments that may shead some light on this topic.
