Intel Court Ruling: Implications for Microsoft? >The court barred Intel (INTC) from giving advance technical information about new processors to some companies and not others and refusing to license patents on CPU buses to makers of competitive chip sets and motherboards. But what was most significant about the order was the legal principle on which it was based: the "essential facilities doctrine." The essential facilities doctrine states that when a dominant company gains control of anything to which others must have access in order to compete (an "essential facility"), it must not deny access to the facility as a way of inhibiting competition. For example, if a company owns all of the railroad tracks in town, it cannot deny access to competitors who need to use the rails.< zdnet.com
