IBM's gloating

An IBM internal memo apparently has cropped up, saying things like: "We've handed Intel another defeat. Earlier this year, we kept them out of the Apple G5 and now we've thrown them out of Xbox." - Earlier this year, another IBM memo showed that Apple was actively thinking about choosing intel, however, it was decided that this was a no-go, because it would lead the customer-base into another of those really big transition phases (68K -> PPC, Classic Mac OS -> Mac OS X).
