There is no way that giving rebates to customers can be considered "anti-competitive."
The EU is just using its anti-trust laws to keep a leash on US companies. They are using AMD as a shield to deflect criticism. If the US complains, the EU will simply say that both companies are American, and the US will be accused of taking sides.

The EU will be the home and birth place of the third anti-Christ just and they birth the last two.

When the EU cant compete they extort and restrain under the veil of "anti-trust". Sad little socialist pansys.

At times I'd like to simply stop selling American products in Europe for a month and see how they like it. They dump on American business over and over and over again.
My response is Airbus, their hypocrisy knows no bounds.

Where's Europe's Intel? AMD? Microsoft?
Where's Europe's Dell? Apple?
Where's Europe's Google?
Where's Europe's MySpace? YouTube? Facebook?
Where's Europe's Free Republic?
Why, they're all here! Coincidence? You decide!

The EU has to make up the billions lost on AirBust by finding ways to fine Intel and Microsoft. I can hear the judge asking the prosecutor in French prior to his decision, "How much has AirBus lost?"
