"If AMD loses the design the business wasn't worth having."

I never said that. Or even implied it. But since Microsoft is losing money on each console (I doubt if they are even breaking even), they sure aren't going to be paying a dollar per CPU that they don't have to. Pennies are important if you are losing money on a sale.

Face it, a fat profit margin is not in the cards for any of the components. But if you want your fantasy to be that Intel is making $100 a chip on XBox, so be it.
