All,
Here is an excerpt from an article appearing on the Intel thread, I thought you might be interested in seeing.

"The computer makers decided it was better to be quick than clever, and thus to design simple computers with standard designs rather than trying to innovate.

"We came to the realization that we were just distributors and integrators of Microsoft and Intel technology," said Robert Moffat, general manager of PC manufacturing and distribution for the International Business Machines Corp. That was a hard pill to swallow for all the PC companies, especially for IBM, which pioneered the personal computer market."

Now I ask you, which company would you rather invest in, IBM or INTC?
