    “I think we’ll lose some of the top-tier PC/OEMs, who will exit the market. I think margins will be destroyed for a bunch of people. If that’s true, then it will be good to have alternatives to hedge against that eventuality.”

      That quote doesn’t mean what you think it means. And you haven’t been saying it was done for profit, you’ve been saying it was done because “people voted with their wallet”.

        Companies will do something if they have a profit incentive to do so. They will not do things if they do not have a profit incentive to do so. People voting with their wallet creates a profit incentive.

          People voting with their wallet creates no profit incentive. It’s what I’ve been trying to explain to you since your very first comment.
