I know how this works now for a company like this. They will slash and burn their workforce and the circle around the drain will flow harder. Intel is done.

It’s also hard to be profitable when people are pulling back on their purchasing habits. Walmart can attest to that fact, and so can thousands of other retailers and manufacturers, and even the mom-and-pop stores.

Perhaps when the recession is over and when inflation goes out of style, Intel and others can start to recover. But, there are many companies that made huge mistakes before the recession and inflation; those can go out of business if people don’t care.

They have reached the theoretical limit to the their chips, all chips. The 10 manometer chip is fine, how much finer can they get? It now becomes a race of new technology, integrating chips with unknown factors such as...........?? https://chemed.chem.purdue.edu/genchem/topicreview/bp/ch7/index.php

I’ve heard that Intel has been putting a lot of emphasis on neural engines. It would make sense to me to abandon x86 architecture in favor of something a little more 21st century.

As far as 10nm or 6nm or whatever winds up being the lower limit I have also heard of wafer-scale integration which means that die size is no longer a major limiting factor in future generations of machines.

With one should I pick?

Intel is at $35.39

It an easy choice for me, but other responses should be interesting.

Intel created a mess when they started instituting hundreds of variants of its processors. Remember the old saying "can't tell the players without a scorecard" ? That's it for Intel. They destroyed their brand identity, too clever by half.

An AMD box is always cheaper than the intel version of the same machine.

Unless it’s for something demanding I have been buying AMD for the last 4 years over intel.
