Intel is basicaly where it is because IBM let it just like microsoft was.
But now the patents have ran out so everythings game without royatlies as i understand(original x86 patents that is). Now with the AMD64 64bit instructions taking over Intel is in a crunch, they have the Itanium x64(its not x86 at all it relies on translator things) instructions that are not truly x86 32 compatible, and AMD has the x86 64 bit instructions that are backwards compatible.

told you Intel is making a 64bit soon. There going to come out with it early too, if you dont realize it. 8) Its Intels way!
And see, theres a reason AMD is around. Intell makes money off there sales.

Intel has no confirmed x86 64bit chip (Itanium is not x86) there are rumors of one by the code name of Yamhill but they all put it far in the futer afre the release of Tjedas and such.
If Intel goes AMD's way thing will basicaly be the way they always have been, Intel in the lead, just becasue they can put HUGE amounts of resorces on it(and the marketing force they have) with AMD for the enthusists But if they strike out on there own, it will be very interesting, becasue if they succeed in making a far supirior part somehow (i read an article two weeks ago about how hard it is to make changes like this) they could get rid of AMD, and that would be bad. If they fail they have the recorces to come back, even thouhg it will hurt like getting a leg cut off.
