Because Wintel has always displayed bad sportsmanship and anti competitive practices. I don't want a winner who wins because they cheat. Also, AMD almost lost everything. At one point they had to sell their own HQ and lease it back to generate cashflow and keep the doors open. If they had closed, Intel research budgets would tank. They wouldn't have nearly as much incentive to innovate. Without Dodge motor company you would still be driving a Ford Model T in black. If AMD died instead of making the original Athlon, you would still be stuck with a Pentium MMX because Intel could have stopped innovating and kept their market share.
