They went after Microsoft and won, and now they're after Intel, the US microchip giant.
The EU is filing charges claiming Intel pays distributors to use/sell their product, stash/hide a competitor's product, and offers discounts to PC makers.
The EU cost Microsoft almost $1.5 billion the last time it filed a charge. Intel says no-fair. Competitor AMD is just being a bad sport. Intel makes and controls 80% of the worldwide computer chip market.
We'll see.
