Since I prefer AMD's processors and ATI's video cards, I have decided that this was bound to happen eventually and I should be glad it's not Intel and ATI.
(Though such things may cause Intel to better support OGL...)
I think the hardware manufacturers will learn soon enough that they have to get along better to keep a market with PCs, but I'm worried that some of them won't care.
Those chip manufacturers do a lot of specific, proprietary hardware for companies like Apple and Microsoft, so why not 'just build more game consoles'?
