It doesn't work that way. As a rule, most large acquisitions die a few years later, irrespective of the acquiring company, unless they are maintained as separate subsidiaries. And there's no way the Intel mafia would allow it to be separate in the long run. Old boys network eventually moves in, and everything goes to shit. I have seen this happen half a dozen times in my career.
- insane_dreamer 2y agoWhat about Google and YouTube? Seems to have worked out pretty well for both.
- ein0p 2y agoYT is semi-separate. It even has its own CEO.
- insane_dreamer 2y agoFair point. But couldn't have Intel maintained nVidia as a separate subsidiary? Or is that run counter to their style?
