Intel could be an IBM customer on many fronts. Does Intel have Copper chips? If not, maybe from IBM. Though on the surface all these major competitors look to be in life and death battles, the fact is that in many cases there is more incest here than in an Appalachian Hollow. They buy and sell among each other with ease. With PCs there is Apple and IBM Compatible. Even Apple gets technology from IBM but each and every IBM compatible PC sold pays IBM a royalty in some form. I think Intel would be interested in IBM's IP in many areas and IBM likewise. No one goes it alone anymore. IBM has over 80% market share in mainframes and still did an alliance last week with Hitachi. Does that make sense? In many ways it does.
