They could make Intel give them a pretty nice CPU as part of the deal and get it CHEAP. It would be quite an awesome deal if it did go through for both parties. Intel gets one of the biggest/best software tool development companies in the world working on their chip and gains mass market adoption. Microsoft gets a cheap deal. So its a win/win if they can agree really.

Unless Microsoft gets scared that the unorthodox architecture of the Larrabee might scare off developers. They know very well that developer support is more important than cheap hardware.
