Microsoft has been down this path before the Nvidia and the original Xbox. That debacle made it so that Microsoft never had a chance to sell the Xbox at a profit, because the deal with Nvidia said that the cost of the graphics chip would never change over the lifetime of the Xbox.

I think Microsoft is just trying to protect itself from the same thing happening again.
