If Intel moves completely proprietary it will bad for the entire industry (including Intel) leading to major fragmentation that will scare away consumers and developers.. look at AAPL.. Steve, Yes. I thought about it later and i think you are right. Intel needs the support of the many hardware, firmware and software developers, and they will only get that support if they allow others a piece of the pie. Kind of like MSFT. MSFT takes the center cut, but still leaves thousands of other software companies something. PS.. MSFT seems to really be in the corner of the Alpha and AMD guys right now.. maybe it's a show for the FTC or maybe they see this fragmentation coming and are covering all their bases now.. if that's the case Bill G is one smart SOB. Yes. There seems to be a serious disconnect between Intel/MSFT. I think MSFT was adamant that Windows CE be open to many chip suppliers. Just look how long it has taken Intel to support it. MSFT doesn't like to be dependent on any other company. My MSFT stock continues to soar. In fact half of my holdings in MSFT and amazingly I never bother to post on the MSFT thread.
