After having charge Intel with a record fine of 1.06 billion Euro, Intel appealed, considering that most claims were suspicion and no real proof. Most likely to answer such statement, the EC published yesterday a 500 pages document summarizing the entire charges and investigation, demonstrating that it was not suspicion but facts supporting the legal action. among them:
Intel offered important discount to Dell from December 2002 to December 2005 if it kept offering Intel-only computer models.
Intel offered important discount to HP from November 2002 to May 2005, if the company had less than 5% of AMD-powered models in its catalog.
Intel offered important discount to NEC from October 2005 to May 2005 if 80% of their sold computer would be "intel inside".
Intel made similar offer to Lenovo in 2007 in order to exclude AMD
