Mellanox had 100Gb Ethernet on the market long before Intel, has 200Gb Ethernet offerings where Intel has nothing in this space, and 800Gb coming soon.
Intel is over.

Very possible this could happen as well as other suitors. But Hock Tan/Avago is obvious chioce..this is just what they do. He has already said expext more M&A after VMware. He is not done yet.
Doubt government will approve though. Dont forgot gov blocked Avago taking over qualcom.
Used to be unthinkable that Intel could be aquired. Not so anymore and actually they have made themselves a bit of a target.
Remember in 2018 when Intel was rumored to buy Broadcom?

It’s been quite a nosedive since then lol.
Hoc Tan is too smart to buy Intel.
The value destruction would be epic.
He is also a professional azz kicker.. which, to be honest, Intel could use a healthy dose of.
Hock Tan of Broadcom looks for companies that make parts for the Apple iPhone.
Agreed this is possibly the only way out for the company. Hock Tan will fix things.
How might the company that bought VMware and alienated it's entire customer base help Intel who has alienated their customer base with subpar products, missed schedules, and lies upon lies?
