a license to use Q's CDMA technology with a license to use Microsoft's Windows technology; they're one and the same.

eau contrare. When you buy a Windows license, you are buying the right to use a pre-packaged product, ready for use when you get it. You are not provided the means to modify it in any way. You may add value by putting it in your box (PC manufacturers) or you may simply use it, as it is (end-user).

When you buy the right to use QCOM IPR, your are getting documentation of how to implement that IPR into your product design. You require insight into how to design that IPR into your hardware and software product. That insight includes proprietary design information that a Windows customer has no access to.
