sonki, intel has already made boxes, they stopped making pcs just a few yrs ago. Cpq put the squeeze on them when they released the low cot 386 in June of 1992.
They literally cut intel's head off and handed it back to intel on a platter with that cost reduction. Intel started losing money on pcs and then quit.

I'm sure that if intel goes into the box building business again that cpq marketing will be rolling all over the floor laughing...
It will be the laugh of the month.
