re: The further absurdity is that you are accusing Intel of hurting consumers by using the mechanism of reducing prices to PC makers.

LOL, ever heard of Standard Oil?
en.wikipedia.org

In 1909, the U.S. Department of Justice filed suit in federal court alleging that Standard had engaged in the following methods to continue the monopoly and restrain interstate commerce: [Manns p 11]
"Rebates, preferences, and other discriminatory practices in favor of the combination by
railroad companies; restraint and monopolization by control of pipe lines, and unfair practices
against competing pipe lines; contracts with competitors in restraint of trade; unfair
methods of competition, such as local price cutting at the points where necessary to
suppress competition;
[and] espionage of the business of competitors, the operation of
bogus independent companies, and payment of rebates on oil, with the like intent."
