re:TGP, Dan: <MSFT paying IBM> Yes, I saw that. $775M is pretty lame though. The key sentence in the story about IBM settlement:

Jackson noted that Microsoft retaliated by charging IBM more than other PC makers for copies of Windows.

Exactly what Intel does. I bet AMD has a half dozen examples worth that much each, of Intel raising chipset prices or theatening to, when an OEM uses AMD processors.
