Intel *guilty* of anti-trust practices
Here's something that many of us were predicting would eventually
happen to Intel eventually, if it let its guard down. Apparently in Japan, Intel simply wasn't careful enough. http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/newse/20050305wo11.htm Yousuf Khan |

When the name of monopoly was MSFT, everybody raved about the whole 9 yards of measures, from multibillion fines to forced partition of the company. Not this time around with INTC... |

Looks like AMD is suggesting that Intel lost its Irish subsidy because
the EU is getting ready to prosecute Intel as well. AMD says EU probe will shine light on Intel "He said that the decision by the Irish government last week to withdraw funds from Intel for its Leixlip fab should be seen in the light of its manufacturing model." http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=21667 Yousuf Khan |

Ireland has also used up a lot of its credits in that respect and its economy is now considered stimulated enough to bring it up to par industrially with other EU countries... and it now has to compete on even terms with the others. It used to be that England had a population of "Irish navvies" who did a lot of the dirty work; apparently that situation has been reversed and there's been a migration of English unskilled labor to Eire looking for work. -- Rgds, George Macdonald |
