Good find but in fairness, it's not clear how much of that $10 was Intel's. Probably a substantial portion but still unclear.

HP has publically stated that $5B of that $10B was from its
investment in Integrity and NSK development. Of the $5B left
several billion was in the form of product development by the
other six IPF OEMs. Then there is the spending by the major
enterprise software ISVs. Intel's contribution is likely on the
order of $2B over 5 years which is about what would expect
for overlapping product development by two IPF MPU design
teams.
