Washington Intel Corp. has complied with a government request to turn over financial data on microprocessor pricing in pre-hearing sparring in the upcoming antitrust case.
The Federal Trade Commission said Wednesday that Intel has provided FTC lawyers with "financial models relating to the pricing and market positioning of microprocessors." Intel turned over the data despite arguing that it did not fall within the guidelines of the government's initial request for evidence.
Intel's action rendered moot an FTC motion on the issue, James Timony, chief administrative law judge, ruled Tuesday.
The FTC's antitrust case against Intel will kick off March 9.
