Intel collapsing?
-
Competition is fine, but just like the school bully, if I see him getting his ass handed to him, I'm stopping to watch, not to help. But I'm sure as hell going to enjoy the show.
Intel can stand to still lose a few pegs.
But after a bunch of beatings even a bully can become the underdog.

I think the healthy approach is to let it play out, and stop "meddling" as usual with the "free" market. Everybody's observing free market karma at play. Let it happen, as much as it will. All those intel mbas deserve it completely.
So far AMD has a good history of not being evil.

How do you fuck up so badly when you the largest share of the market? Like what?
In this case prioritizing „shareholder value“ above innovation and hitting engineering roadblocks while trying to catch up.

Isn't that crazy how even the biggest monopolists are unable to be a stable business for more than a decade or whatever
-
Starting to see a lot of worried people as Intel descends downwards rapidly. Reminds me of Nokia how this is going...
Wasn't it AMD a few years ago?

Sure was... but as Intel rested AMD came out with a decent product followed by great products in the cpu market

Losing cash hand over fist and basically screwing everyone over certainly isn't the way to do it...
Having the main product you have been known for for like ever being so poor isn't it eitherInvesting money to catch up is the way to do it. The CEO before Gelsinger didn't invest in R&D, which is why they fell behind in the first place. When you're behind, you either need to spend crazy amounts of money to catch up, or sell off the fabs and become a design only firm, but they decided to take the government handouts and keep the fabs.

Of course intel will collapse within the next 10 years.
They have focused exclusively on high-end, very expensive processors in the past. Now that moore's law is no longer true, that doesn't work anymore, because ARM chips are catching up in performance, at 1/10 of the price.

Whilst true, AMD are doing just fine by being fabless. I can't really see x86 going as soon as you say for many reasons
