Intel Corp (INTC)

So if these ARM chips are going to be sold anyway, why shouldn't they be Intel-designed ARM Chips putting money in Intel's coffers rather than TSMC's?

This is where we differ because I believe a fair proportion won't be sold anyway as Atom will out-price them from the market if not now then eventually. Atom also has far more latent development potential than any ARM core, what dual-issue ARM core is currently comparable to dual-issue Atom ?
