Paul Gillin, Editor at ComputerWorld makes an interesting point in an editorial in this week's issue about the FTC investigation of Intel. He says, "Correct me if I'm wrong, but I always thought the litmus test of antitrust regulation was whether consumers were being harmed. If that's the case, then the government's investigation comes at a strange time. Computer Intelligence reported last week that the remarkable drop in PC prices is hitting home with buyers. Sales of PC's less than $1,000 made up 23% of all PC sales in July, more than triple the figure of just six months previous. And, MicroElectronics Inc in Columbus, Ohio, began selling a full-featured Intel-compatible PC for $499."
