>Perhaps the EC is under the impression that the consumer could have gotten EVEN MORE for EVEN LESS had Intel not perverted natural market forces.

It's nice to see you think the EU might be agreeing that the market works but it's simply silly to think that if Intel charged more, the consumer would pay less. However it is consistent with the criminalization of any dominant producer. If the EU is protecting the competition rather than the consumer then it makes some sense. I wish they'd make up their minds as to what their trying to accomplish.


Hello. Competition. Competitor. Your blinders are on so tight you can't even think past Intel.

Perhaps the EC is under the impression that Intel's abuses of market power impaired or eliminated the availability of less expensive and/or better performing competitors' chips.

You know, like they say in the charges against Intel.
