In other words you're saying Wintel achieves whatever low prices it can claim by sacrificing reliability.

Re: "Reducing or eliminating the market mechanisms that have driven the volume segment reduces the price performance advantage of the WinTel players, and forces them to assume (and include in their costs) many of the same expenses that the proprietary players must support. This reduces the tendency for customers to accept the WinTel proposition since their price benefit is reduced, and also slows the need for additional development, incentives for IHVs and ISVs, and other ongoing expenses."
