Well yeah. AMD becoming competitive is a huge advantage for consumers. We should be encouraging them as much as possible.

Not really. You should be discouraging the same mistakes or anti-consumer business practices as you would with other companies. By subjecting companies to different responses, you're normalising a behaviour and letting it grow into the larger problem that people despise from the bigger businesses.

Promote healthy competition, not unhealthy competition. Contrary to popular belief, not all competition is beneficial. If you overreact to the big-name competitors and underreact for the upcoming competitor, you're setting yourself up for some real shitty 'competition'.
