Upper Sixth Homework : EU vs INTEL

Dear Upper Sixth

I am now officially a scab : I should be withdrawing my labour today in support of the public sector workers' strike, yet here I am setting you those questions to do for homework.

Due : Thursday 1/12

So, here are the questions:

  1. Explain why technology heavyweights end up dominant in their industries
  2. From the example, describe a network effect.  Is it an innocent or deliberate barrier to entry?
  3. To what extent is discounting anti-competitive?
  4. Do you agree with the EU's decision to fine INTEL.  If so, should the fine have been so large?
Right, back to my strike action

Jack, if that's how you spell, you really cannot afford to take a day off educating yourself
