no matter WHAT the cost
intel blew it by forgetting the lesson that they, intel, taught the world. When intel came out with X86 over two decades ago it did not have the best microprocessor by a long shot. Motorola's, for example was far better. IBM, according to the folklore, embraced it because it was not good and probably could not pose a threat to it...HA HA. But intel got it out early and the installed base of software made it the dominent CPU. When intel thought that it could drive the industry to a non compatible architecture, it forgot the lesson that it had taught the industry so well years ago.

I apologize if I have oversimplified or mangled history. That is how I recall it, however.
