References, please.  My understanding is that the cross-licensing
agreement between Intel and AMD was dissolved long ago, and there is
nothing in current AMD CPUs that requires tithing to Intel.  They most
certainly are *NOT* making duplicates of Intel's designs -- the AMD ones
are markedly better.
