by loosing I mean loosing as a partner/user/supporter. What do you think a Microsoft guaranteed loan of $40 billion to amd with announcement that microsoft would support only amd chips would do to intel? On the other hand what effect would be of an investment of $40 billion into linux with announcement that Intel would not be Microsoft compatible?

ps BTW I do not like the fact that microsoft got so much power but I do not think that microsoft cares for me liking it or not.
pss by the same token if amd would loose their chip business that would make microsoft so much more dependant on intel
