Sounds like intel is mismanaged.
- ethbr1 3y agoIt certainly was. It remains to be seen if it is. If they'd been made a performant (as in, non-x86) low-end CPU, then they wouldn't have lost mobile and be competing with ARM now. Intel of the past few decades learned the wrong lesson from their history. You can climb the value chain to riches, but once you're at the top you still need to seed the earth for the next generation of profits. And that means cheap entry points and volume.
- sitkack 3y agoThe low end always eats the high end, always. Intel sold StrongARM to Marvell and that is some of the Arm IP they are fighting against in hyperscaler space. https://www.theregister.com/2006/06/27/intel_sells_xscale/ https://www.theregister.com/2006/06/27/intel_sells_xscale/ https://www.networkworld.com/article/3574013/marvell-exits-the-general-purpose-arm-server-business.html https://www.networkworld.com/article/3574013/marvell-exits-t...
