AMD has filed an anti-trust complaint against Intel, accusing the firm of unlawfully maintaining its market position by making it difficult for people to do business with AMD. The suit was filed yesterday in a federal district court in Delaware, and lists 38 firms AMD says have been victims of coercion.
The complaint alleges that Intel has forced major customers, such as Dell, Sony, NEC and Hitachi, into exclusive, or partially exclusive deals with Intel in exchange for cash payments, rebates or marketing subsidies that were conditional on not doing business with AMD.
