Intel's knuckles rapped over AMD pricing practices
"A JAPANESE WEB reports that Intel will be found to have violated antimonopoly laws after it gave favourable prices to customers as long as they didn't use AMD processors."

While AMD is the largest of these competitors, it is possible that other makers such as Transmeta and Via were included in the scope of the investigation, which led to officials raiding Intel offices last year. µ"
