THE FTC IS PEERING INSIDE INTELA LITTLE TOO MUCH INTEL inside? That's what the Federal Trade Commission is asking. On Aug. 27 the agency asked Intel to provide it with information concerning Intel's proposed purchase of graphics chipmaker Chips & Technologies Inc. The $420 million deal, announced on July 27, would give Intel a sizable position in specialty-graphics chips--and, rivals charge, an edge in designing its own graphics technology into PCs. Rivals' complaints to the FTC may have triggered the probe. Intel says it will comply with the FTC request.
