Not that shocking really. They take parts, put it in boxes and sell it to customers that don't care much whether label in part says Intel or AMD.

If Intel gonna say "we literally will pay you more to use our parts", that's pure profit to them, customers still gonna buy it because if they cared more about the CPU than the rest of the value propositon of Dell/Lenovo they wouldn't buy from them in the first place.
