Default [BBC]Intel in threats and bribery suit

Intel is facing a federal lawsuit that accuses it of using "illegal threats" to dominate microchip sales.

The New York attorney general accuses Intel of using "bribery and coercion" to make computer manufacturers buy its chips instead of those from its rivals.

Andrew Cuomo said the anti-competition federal lawsuit follows an investigation lasting almost two years.

Is this from the lawsuit that AMD filed some years ago? Or something completely separate?
