I'd really like to hear what others think about this argument, especially on the technical issue of
whether Intel has the ability to write and effectively distribute an OS to go with its
microprocessors, and, if so, on the historical/economic issue whether there are any
circumstances in which Intel would actually do such a thing.


More likely it will continue to license from 3rd parties, with more non-MSFT vendors in the fray. Look for them licensing some sort of lightweight, realtime OS on which to run Java for non-PC computing hardware such as the embedded market, PDAs, set-top boxes, and NCs.
