Brussels charges Intel with market abuse

Antitrust regulators in Brussels have sent Intel a statement of objection outlining the charges, according to a person close to the investigation.

Details have not been revealed but they are expected to include allegations that it undermined competition by offering rebates to PC makers that effectively shut out AMD from the local microprocessor market.
