- irb 8y agoHow about when customers with niche use cases like that are sufficient to sustain Intel at its current/similar size? Not saying I necessarily agree with the top-level comment, but that is hardly a convincing argument against it.

- aequitas 8y agoWith more and more transition to cloud platforms this might be a short sleep. Though I still prefer a local environment for quick iterative development I often can't justify the time to spin up/manage a VM due to how quick I could otherwise do cloud native development in a browser.
- basch 8y agoid love to see a "what percent of devices are sold to developers" statistic. youre not their target market. you can already run VMs on azure or aws and access them with rdp.
