I&#x27;m wondering if your sources really refute OP. If Intel truly does build families of processors, cherry picking processors that match Amazon&#x27;s specs could still be considered collaboration (Amazon worked with Intel to determine the specs of the chips they need cherry picked for example).  &quot;Designed specifically for Amazon&quot; sounds like marketing speak to me, but I&#x27;ve no evidence.  Just wondering how much real engineering collaboration occurred when the information is pulled from press a release.  (Update: I see OP has deleted the comment so I am probably way off base)
