Intel exiting the PC business as it stops investment in the Intel NUC
Funny enough, I predicted this in a previous HZ comment 3 months ago when they cut their server systems business.<p>&gt; &quot;My guess is that they&#x27;re cutting the portfolio down to feature only chipsets and add-in cards. Just CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, ASICs, networking. It makes sense if anything - it really focuses on their core business. No more side-projects with questionable profitability.
In the last 2 years since Pat Gelsinger took over, they&#x27;ve cut RealSense, Movidius, Optane Memory, IPO&#x27;d MobileEye, and now exited the Server Systems business. The only odd-ball left are their NUC business.&quot;<p>If any hedge funds are looking for analysts, I&#x27;m always open to offers...<p>It&#x27;s sad to NUCs go, but it was inevitable. They made products for customers, while simultaneously competing with said customers. It&#x27;s hard to build any decent partnerships on that premise. I&#x27;m currently typing this on a Serpent Canyon NUC though, so it&#x27;s certainly bittersweet.
