    Intel's putative actions suggest it is, or at least believes itself to be, effectively a monopoly. At an absolute minimum, a duopoly with a substantial element of monopolistic power.

    Just sayin'.
    Duopoly is certainly the wrong word, lets leave it at "anti-competitive actions to force a monopoly".

    I used the term duopoly as there really is only two competitors in the commercial CPU space for desktops and laptops.

    Mmm, yes and no, Apple isn't going to sell it others in the market, it's theirs and theirs alone.

    I would say it's "difficult" to classify them in the same basket as Intel/AMD
