I personally don't think Dr. Taylor's words mean that we can "count out" Intel. He was asked if he'd be working for them in a year and replied that he hoped they had more pride than that. I think we can probably rule out a total buyout from Intel, but it doesn't mean a licencing deal won't happen with them.

There aren't that many "mega cap" companies out there....I think it's highly likely that Intel is one of the NDA companies.
