"Thanks for setting me straight. I didn't know it was you making the rules."

Think about it for a moment. Consoles, webpads, PDAs and set top boxes are almost totally non-x86. There is no compelling reason for them to be, and quite a few reasons for them not to be. Yes, Intel does make the StrongARM and XScale processors which are used in some of those markets, but even the PDA market is dominated by the DragonBall processors. If you include these, then why don't you include all of the other embedded applications? They are processors too. Of course, if you did, you might find someone like Microchip with the largest market share. But their ASP is closer to a $1...

You need to know a bit more about these things before you spout off like that.
