Your presumption that poor coding has anything to do with CPU development is absurd. There may be times that M$ has to wait on faster chips before pushing new technologies or Intel has to wait on M$ before pushing new chips (like their 64bit chips that probably won't be get over-hyped until the next iteration of Winblows rolls around), but that's hardly evidence of the two working hand-in-hand. > People need to use the first, luckily both come bundled with the > latest PC people just need to buy right now.

Marketing would be the propaganda that tries to convince you that you need both. When you have no option that's not marketing but a monopoly, which sort of brings this all full-circle...
