The European Union on Monday released numerous excerpts and anecdotes from documents used in its recent antitrust action against Intel to show that its decision was justified. In May, the EU fined Intel the equivalent of $1.45 billion, accusing it of violating its antitrust regulations. Intel formally appealed the fine and ruling on July 22. In numerous incidents, according to the EU, Intel attempted to quash programs at its OEMs from building PCs around microprocessors from rival AMD. (source: pcmag.com)
