last time I checked, Intel DOES own all rights to the 80x86 chips, and it is NOT an "open spec". It may be well known, and repeatedly duplicated, but it is not open. Companies have to be very careful of how they go about copying others work to ensure that they do not violate copyrights.
Specifically, "Black Box" development techniques must be employed.
