If true, this lends credence to the "first dollar" rebate scheme.

No, it doesn't.

And, besides: Ellen Tseng, a Taipei-based analyst with Morgan Stanley, said computer companies can normally book incentive payments without investors noticing. One reason is that many of these payments are buried in advertising expenses, Tseng said. "AMD also has a similar program. Everyone is trying to incentivize their clients."

It could be just the beginning. After the Dell lawsuit, other Intel customers might also state the rebate from Intel in the financial reports.
