Paul, >>>While some customers may like the All-In-One approach, many of Intel's customers objected because they could not easily add their distinctive value-added system components.<<<

At the risk of having you tell me "there are no stupid questions, only stupid people asking questions",

What would it cost to cover all the bases and to be ready when and if NSM finds a lot of customers who may like the All-In-One approach? Sometimes people don't know they want something until after someone builds it. Like - build it and they will come?

It seems that with Intel's R&D budget they could afford to have their fingers on a lot of different pulses and have the engineering completed on "strawman-like" products and if they sense that the competition feels a pulse somewhere, they can be ready to go without being caught off guard (again?).

From a paranoid shareholder - (I guess paranoia is contagious),
