The numbers go something like this: semiconductors are about 3% of IBM's revenue. Of that, Apple represents 2%. Moreover, it is clear IBM has been putting most of it's effort over the last couple of years into optimizing for the game console market rather than laptops. Intel, on the other hand, produces chips for the entire range of personal computers and workgroup servers. They have also put a lot of effort into the game console market (and lost out to IBM in a huge way), but they they had the bandwidth to do that and maintain and expand their PC chip business.
