Especially reflected in his dealings with Apple, AMD and Nvidia. As well as the massive M&A. Since he has no creativity, original or innovative ideas whatsoever, he thinks all Intel employees are useless sh-t just like himself and unable to develop... — read more
The death blow to Intel would be Nvidia buying AMD
This must have crossed Jensen's mind already. They can spin off RTG and give it to Intel as a consolation prize in order to have some weak competition. Very much like Intel kept a struggling AMD on life support for many years. Would def. feel like... — read more
AMD Radeon and Raja on board! What does this mean for VPG?
Is this the start of a shake-up? Should we expect any other changes in graphics leadership?
Has anyone ever been to the massive Intel annual party?
What about that big party they have every year. The one where they invite the Intel marketing guys from all over the world on an all expense paid stadium event with lavish hotels and bands playing. You know the one where BK fires t-shirts into the... — read more
MG&A costs Intel nearly as much as R&D
Come on what marketing do you need when you are a monopoly. When you see the headoffice parking lot empty before 8:30 and after 4:30 you know some people are having a party. Time to cut the real fast not engineers.
IT costs Intel $13,000 per employee
This is ridiculous. No other company spends this much.
Intel + AMD Radeon announcement
No doubt this is the result of Apple threatening to move over to AMD Raven Ridge APU. It's a huge loss for Intel (esp. in terms of employee morale and self-respect) as it fully validates AMD strategy and BK's utter fear and desperation at losing... — read more
Intel is great at providing value for competitor's shareholders
AMD stock has rallied more than 10% after KabyLake G announcement and completely reversed the negative trend after earnings report. Lisa Su and co. must be laughing at BK's stupidity, over at the AMD boardroom.

Aneel, Omar and PROF Liu and a few others on the Board are starting to move Intel in a positive direction. They are pushing out the old timers as well as helpip with a more representative Exec suute
Intel to counter next week
Intel to offer 1.5 shares for 1 Qualcomm. This values Qualcomm at $110bn. Intel hopes to close the deal before the end of Q2. To make the numbers work Intel will close icdg and other wireless activities when the takeover is finalized. 10,000 Intel... — read more
Qualcomm's allegations are true
Have you met the engineers in icdg they don't have a clue. Samsung used their modem once and then sued them because it was so sh-- and ran a mile. Apple finally bit the bullet in 2015 and tried to make the sack of shot into a product. Apple engineers... — read more

Qualcomm making up stuff about Intel
So now Qualcomm claims with zero proof that Apple gave Qualcomm’s secrets to Intel. Made up out of thin air. It‘s a great source of amusement for all Intel people who have been working with Apple and who didn‘t get any kind of competitor info (and... — read more

Everything ok now stock is $46?
You f---ing idiots. Revenue went up 2% and inflation is 1.3% so real "growth" is negligible. What really drove the stock price? Two things, a $750m one time dividend from McAfee and a $350m reduction in non R&D expenses I.e. Job cuts. Without these... — read more

INTC Barely Good Enough modems drag down QCOM stock
QCOM -7%, guess that design is not worth the price (just like AE said a few years ago).
Insider News
The reason there is spike in the current share price is because some insider news on the upcoming layoff is leaked. The market likes it when a company reduce its expenditure, in this case the headcount.
Intel is doing great, where is the hate coming from?
Honest question. Aside from layoffs that caused stress to everybody in the company but are now (hopefully) a thing of the past, working here is quite enjoyable to me. Intel itself had a rocky period, but that too seems to be over and we are looking... — read more
