Intel has been formally accused by the US federal government (in addition to actions by Japanese and Korean government, European Trade Commission, and AG office of NY) of being a monopoly; on accounts of both its general purpose microprocessor, mostly in reference to its allegedly unfair practices toward AMD; as well as in its graphics/chipset business, in its alleged practices toward NV.
