Intel was on top of the world hiring the best, innovating and just plain being smarter and executing better than anyone else and crushing them all.
The list is long of whom they’ve beaten: IBM, DEC, Motorola, and so many more.
Sadly when one Andy passed and another Andy came to rise and we got PSO, BK, BS and now finally Pat, a level of stupidity, arrogance, uncompetitive behaviors has resulted in the final irony and embarrassment for Intel.
Now we are going from government to government groveling for money and appearing on 60minutes catering to national policy fear for more $.
Here boys and girls is the richest semiconductor on earth having failed in every way with not other obvious strategy now resorting to buying a crushed competitors old fabs, it’s cast off employees and retreads to try and expand their business. The remains of three failed companies leaders and sorry engineers from failed execution of IBM, AMD and Charter are here for your having of lonely 30Billion, sold by another su---r who didn’t know what a bunch of losers they got nor how hard semiconductors is now.
The result most surely not be a more powerful Intel but another distraction and an final last and sad chapter to Intel. Bob, Andy, and Gordon’s legendary company fall from Grace is assuredly complete with big layoffs all but certain in about 3-5 years, FUBAR.
TMG and GF be ready for what is all but a certainty, FUBAR
