Thread regarding Intel Corp. layoffs

We now know exactly when 'peak PC' happened

http://www.businessinsider.com/pc-sales-by-quarter-peak-2016-7?r=UK&IR=T

Once upon a time, the only way to get online and run apps was with a personal computer - a box with a keyboard and mouse or trackpad. Most of those computers ran Microsoft Windows. That old definition of a "computer" is outdated. Most computing these days is done on phones, or on computers with touch screens and simpler but less sophisticated operating systems from Apple (iOS) and Google (Android or Chrome).

Intel is really good at making things that nobody wants anymore.

What a great place to spend one's career.

Wait 'till the day that we are able to dock our phones on a docking station that is hooked up to a keyboard and monitor.

@gic

Does Intel know that all of their scale advantage comes from the high volume PC client? This is going away and shifting to the foundries.

Still think Intel is going to come out of the PC tailspin?

More layoffs are coming - mark my words.
