Abstract
The US Antitrust Division´s new case against Microsoft and the Federal Trade Commission´s new case against Intel focus on restraints on technology advances. In both cases, the government´s attorneys allege that the company charged with anticompetitive conduct has abused its dominant market position to extend its monopoly power from a first market to a second market. They also allege that part of the anticompetitive market-extension conduct involves hindering or suppressing other companies´ technological innovation
