You'd think the arrival of a new CPU is good news but it is actually very bad news. First why a third design on 14nm when Intel technologists always say nothing offers more value than scaling offered by the next generation in PPAC? 10nm should have... — read more
Is Aicha the next Intel CEO?
Was she offered the CEO post when she resigned? She certainly will make more headlines than Diane Bryant. Like Ursula Burns.
Intel's Acquisition of Micron
Thoughts? Would it make sense for Intel to acquire Micron, like ASAP. This acquisition would give Intel a full exposure to the prospects of 3D XPoint memory and Micron is doing really well in this area. The earnings are volatile at Micron and if... — read more
Intel stock holding well. I hope there are more layoffs
So we hit $50/share I don't care about hoe it happens. As long as it does
ACT layoffs show how lazy managers and executives are.
Easier to implement the HR SSL4 formula than to actually evaluate each business group and site. Stock will go up so execs can sell like crazy in Intel's last cash wave. They killed morale on purpose.
When will Altera ship 14nm product?
I'm going with 'never' even though the public has been led to believe 2017. When was 14nm launched? LOL!
Layoffs is the proof that executives are just milking the last of the x86 monopoly.
Most execs will be gone in 2 to 4 years when Intel collapses. Layoffs were the only way to increase their short term packages and run away.
good deal or nah? lol

Why more layoffs are all but certain unless Intel makes another more realistic strategic change!
IoT, Modems, 5G, Memory are all interesting and look to be business that will grow. So it sure sounds good to the board and financial analysts that Intel is positioning itself in them, easy to fool the non-experts! To the layman it looks credible... — read more
Intel doesn't pay well anymore in Oregon and Santa Clara.
With housing prices at a record high, high state income and property taxes. Intel's salary and depressing bonuses and stocks are not what they used to be. On top of that people are treated horribly while the technology is stagnant. Then why would... — read more
Apple deal running out of steam

Will Aicha retaliate against Europe?
Aicha evens is one of Intel's top executives that has the most exposure to Europe. With stiff labor laws she's having trouble meeting her act goals. What actions will she take next?
Will Apple throttle Qualcomm's modem so to not embarrass Intel?
Qualcomm offers two variants of its slim modem (read standalone without application processor). The x7 is a 300Mbps aging data shifter whilst the x12 is a 600Mbps monster. Intel's xmm7360 sits right in the middle. So what will Apple do? Throttle... — read more
When we gave Aicha the benefit of doubt
http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2014/05/14/intels-cellular-modem-revenue-has-bottomed.aspx Mobile revenues were primed to explode. But no one could have guessed the explosion would be negative.
Murthy
Murthy was the mastermind behind ACT.Murthy wanted to cut headcount to 85k. He was specifically pushing managers to finish focal early to crunch the numbers. BK was the one who pushed back. Now Murthy is pointing to the stock price as vindication... — read more
Still no takers for McAfee? There is no way they will get 7.7 Billion Dollars for the purchase price.
They will not get back what they paid for it and put it in the "phuck up" column for Intel.
How about people inside !ntel ? Happy or not ?
Just curious to know as i am keep getting calls from my 1ntel colleagues for "referring his resume to my current company" people are not happy ? or in fear ?
BK, please control the unnecessary spending and rein in the $ wastage!
After 12,000 layoff to save $1.4bil but yet continue to allow runaway spending! Every few weeks I see boat loads of engineers and managers fly from PG/KM sites to Intel CH just for few days meeting then fly back! All these travels on business class... — read more
Aicha says icdg need to achieve $5.6bn revenue in next few years to be sustainable.
Think Intel needs to cut the gangreneous division off. It has no chance at achieving this. And this is under the assumption of Intel 60% GM.
Roses are red
Pc revenue is blue Server growth is stinted And iot growth is too
Intel slow failure
Intel reminds of so many companies DEC DG HP SUN MICRO WANG GOP Trump Never accept the wrong turn, no abality to change. Intel needs to cut deep 50% which will be revenue netural. Give remaing employs 3 yrs salary as incentive to turn it around by... — read more
What's the mood and sentiment like now the dust has settled after act?
Have people gone back to the way things were. Thinking it's just a one off and Intel needed to do it?
It could get a lot worse
Let's look at the sensitivity analysis of Intel losing market share to amd. For arguments sake let's assume 10% loss of market share in x86. Since Intel earns $56bn from these markets let's assume $5.6bn - No big deal right? Intel has an average... — read more
The arrogance of Intel
The virtuous cycle of growth philosophy process Intel thinks it is the entire ecosystem. Whilst companies like Apple cherry pick great solutions from vendors and add value where they are uniquely placed. Intel does everything but nothing well. We... — read more
I wonder what a company wide walk-out strike will do on the Seven-Eleven management attitude toward employees.
Guess they think they can find minimum wage high school drop outs to do design, verification and testing. Give them a try.
A must read for Intel optimists and pessimists to solidify your positions. More and worst times a coming for Intel.
https://www.semiwiki.com/forum/content/6125-apple-will-never-use-intel-custom-foundry.html Looks like someone summarizing all my points well! Anyone has a question I will be happy to answer, LOL
Is anyone else doing this?
I find myself just going to g-- meet ups and tyranny parties just to find people I can recommend to Intel. Because the bonus is doubled and they are guaranteed to get hired is a very lucrative and interesting hobby.
Intel Management crestrd the "Us vs Them" environment.
Just another observation about the corruption of Intel management. They will always have their secret, little meetings amongst themselves to determine which of "Them" will be laid-off next. They'll always protect their own asses and fire the... — read more
Intel should go to war with TSMC. Ditch x86 and use our superior process and technology to fab the f--- outta stuff. Beat them at their own game
Adopt ARM and do it better that they do.
Great place to work!
Aicha to give everyone who logged more than 1000 hrs on 7360 a free iPhone 7. Just goes to show you do good work at Intel you get rewarded.

Am looking at the benchmarks for the Zen processor, its looking pretty compelling.
AMD might not have the leading processor, but it at least seems competitive. The only problem I see is its not available until 2017.
