Intel found to be abusing market power in Japan
http://www.reed-electronics.com/elec...09320?nid=2019
quote Specifically, the JFTC found that one manufacturer was forced to agree to buy 100 percent of its CPUs from Intel; another manufacturer was forced to curtail its non-Intel purchases to 10 percent or less; Intel separately conditioned rebates on the exclusive use of Intel CPUs throughout an entire series of computers sold under a single brand name in order to exclude AMD CPUs from distribution; and the mechanisms used to achieve these ends included rebates and marketing practices that includes the “Intel Inside” program and market development funds provided through Intel’s corporate parent in the United States. The recommendation also notes that Intel imposed these restrictions in direct response to AMD’s growing market share from 2000 to 2002 and that as a result of this misconduct, the combined market share of AMD and a second, much smaller CPU company fell from 24 percent in 2002 to 11 percent in 2003. /quote |
