I've only bought 12 Xeon's for the datacenter in the last 7 years probably not a good business model

I bet apple told them they're moving to arm for everything and intel is making GBS threads bricks

rip any future investment in desktop chips. I hope you like the next crop of chips from Intel because that's how they will be forever.

The last desktop CPU I bought was an i5-3570k or whatever back in late 2012 and it's still perfectly serviceable.

I'm not gonna look it up but if those are all confirmed layoff plans then that's a lot of people!

if you look at PC market share you'd think Intel is doing stellar but there's really so much going against them * Core gamers mostly agree all you need is a sandy bridge i5 * they're selling intel-based windows tablets for $80 * AMD is releasing Zen this summer and it will perform as well as Skylake for less * Intel has no chips in the major video game consoles, and can't match AMD's built-to-order chip business that makes the custom APUs * mobile i hope you enjoyed reading this post

the combination of market saturation and the end of moore's law means everyone has and uses their pcs constantly but they don't have a reason to get a new one. maybe intel can pay Microsoft to make windows slower each release the way apple does w/ ios/osx.
