gvatty,

First off, consumers were harmed directly by Intel's actions.

Don't fall for the "rebates lower prices for consumers" trap; exclusionary loyalty rebates RAISE consumer prices... The rebates are just the cost of maintaining their artificially high monopoly profits. (Intel folk who say that's impossible Just Don't Get It.)

And by preventing or delaying the release of competitors' products, the market was denied the benefits of competition.
