Please give your answers to the list of charges Intel has been convicted of, instead of making up your own straw-men (like "being popular").

I think the idea that these things are crimes is made up. This is much the same as my position on people being taken to court for file-sharing. It may be true that they did the things they're accused of, but it's farcical. Like putting somebody on trial for standing in my light and casting a shadow on me, which I've arbitrarily declared to be a crime, and having a 500-page report on whether they actually did this or not.
The reason they are being attacked by the EU is that they have the money, which they got by consensual means, hence "being popular". A secondary reason is because the EU can come up with an excuse to take it, just like they did with Microsoft.
Incidentally I have two AMD PCs and have just installed Ubuntu.

Yes, it is "made up" by the legislative bodies we vote into power, called governments. (As opposed to appearing on stone tablets, I suppose?)
The reason there's a law against it, is that it is bad for YOU if a company in a dominant position abuses that position. YOU don't have much power -- Intel could walk all over you if there were no laws.
But if you and me and everyone else join together as an effective market, then together we can counter-balance the power of huge corporations like Intel, and it can be beneficial for all. Do you think that's "irrelevant"? Would you rather Intel were permitted to just set a 'tax' at whatever level they deemed fit for owning an x86 CPU? Remember, you can't vote Intel out of power...

and cannot coerce us into doing anything. They can only bribe us.
You know I'm in proper argument mode when I start using "cannot" instead of "can't"
I approve of laws that prevent coercion. I presume you admit the possibility of other laws being stupid. Are you in favour of copyright laws?
I think the distance between voting to be governed by some body (which, in the case of the EU, or indeed government in general, we were never offered an option on), and the resulting laws that body imposes, is very large. And if you and everybody else join together, you can walk all over me: such is the nature of voting. (Voting for a government, I mean. If we're voting on something where participation in the thing is optional, e.g. what sandwiches to take a picnic, you can still walk all over me, but that's fine, because I can always say "I don't like your stupid picnic anyway, I'm staying at home". This is not the case in an election.)

Whereas you (I think) don't think those actions are bad for you, and don't think they should (if you were to write the law) be categorised as "abuses".
If that's right, let's leave it there.
I, too, approve of laws that prevent coercion. I also approve of some other laws that prevent other things. Yes, some laws are stupid. I have no opinion I wish to express here about copyright laws. I agree that voting for a government is highly imperfect, and it's frankly amazing that it works as well as it does.

the important points being that trade is entirely based on consent, and that diverse practices create knowledge [something about Hayek and information flow goes here].

They were paying manufacturers to not buy from a competitor. When you are "in a dominant position on a market" that is illegal.
Such payments are "abusive according to settled case-law of the Community Courts unless the dominant company can put forward specific reasons to justify their application in the individual case".
(Quotes from the EC summary).

It's all about the creation of knowledge. People have to be allowed to experiment with business practices, even ones which appear to be unreasonable. If they are unreasonable, and the unfairness isn't enforced (by law, I mean), then they will collapse in due course. Meanwhile, they might turn out not to be unreasonable after all. Having an agency arbitrarily declare, for instance, "you have to be two companies now instead of one, and compete with yourself, because you're too big" is stupid. The law doesn't know what's best. The law doesn't conduct the experiments to find out what's best. Sometimes one big company is in fact best - or not - and we have to find out, by allowing it.

I mean, the problem was recognised in Roman times, at least; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competition_law#Roman_legislation.
There's a huge amount of history of this issue. (I'm not a historian and I haven't done more than skim it, but it seems pretty obvious to me).
If you insist that these previous experiments are inconclusive, that's your choice; I would disagree.

Yes, this is a cheeky reference to something you said earlier, designed to be slightly unsettling.
I note that "stopping supply ships" ought to be a crime anyway, never mind any competition laws; you can't stop somebody else's ship. You can, however, buy all their grain and make it scarce, if you want to; more fool you. In Roman times such behaviour might have been more of a problem as it would lead to nobody having any bread, rather than bread costing slightly more until the attempted monopoly collapses (due to diversity).
I might perhaps be drawn to support a law against somebody literally buying all the grain that exists in the world. Particularly if they then burn it rather than selling it. That would be 1) impossible and 2) an odd thing to do.
Generally speaking I think that laws like this are an attempt to maintain homeostasis in the face of a perceived wrong which isn't actually wrong, just alarming. I see the 1557 Statute of Anne (which kicked off copyright) in the same light.

- pay to not sell, whereby Intel paid manufacturer D, on condition that it not to sell its AMD-powered business desktop to large customers or or via other distributors.

What will happen:
1) They will stay big for ages. They won't actually be able to get rid of competitors, but Intel will stay big while competitors stay small. This is not necessarily good for Intel.
2) They will be expending substantial amounts of money to encourage manufacturers to use Intel chips. The amount they spend has to cover the difference between the worth of Intel chips and the worth of the chips of their competitors. As soon as the competitors chips become good enough, there comes a tipping point where suddenly Intel is paying masses of money which is insufficient to prop up an inferior product, and then they dramatically collapse due to their competitors being both superior and unencumbered by paying bribes. The EU is robbing us of this hilarious moment, and robbing Intel of its money which was freely and consensually given to it.
There is an argument that by being a massive company with massive cashflow, you can afford to do the research needed to genuinely be the best often enough avoid any cheeky upstart out-innovating you, which they won't be able to do due to being too small. This sounds good, but doesn't actually work, because it turns a relatively small competitor can do the necessary research despite your best efforts to bribe everybody away from them.

Also, Intel don't take my money unless I give it to them, which is ultimately my decision, even if they're almost ubiquitous (far from it, really). Meanwhile the EU wants to take my money whether I like it or not, and if I steadfastly resist I would be in severe trouble and possibly prison.

From the wiki
A canonical explanation for the change was given in a two-part storyline on Star Trek: Enterprise. The two episodes, "Affliction" and "Divergence", aired in February 2005. An earlier story arc featured the Augments, genetically-engineered humans left over from the Eugenics Wars of the late 20th century, and who were defeated by Captain Jonathan Archer and the USS Enterprise in Klingon space. The Klingon High Council fears that Starfleet was developing armies of Augments; after gaining access to genetic material from the Augments, the Klingons perform experiments to increase their own intellect and strength. The experiments turn disastrous when a strain of flu one of the test subjects suffered from is mutated and becomes a deadly plague that spreads across the Empire, causing physical changes resulting in the afflicted bearing a TOS-era appearance. Dr. Phlox of the Enterprise formulates a cure for the virus, but the physical alterations remain in the populace and are inherited by offspring. Phlox indicated that "someday" the physical alterations could be reversed

it is possible to suck them in, but it involves putting your feet in cold water, also known as the cremaster reflex
