Intel verdict “protectionist”

Technology Magazine News | 24 Jul 2009

American technology advocates and legal experts have roundly condemned the EU’s decision to fine Intel nearly a billion pounds for breaking anti-trust laws. Jonathan Zuck, President of the industry advocacy group the Association for Competitive Technology notes, “For the past 20 years, the microprocessor industry has delivered more innovation, more speed, more functionality, and lower prices. Over the past ten years, the average price of Intel’s PC microprocessors has dropped by 60 per cent. When the only one complaining about the competitive situation is AMD, it raises serious concerns about the efficacy of this action.”
