Intel to Cut 12,000 Jobs, Forecast Misses Amid PC Blight
> The company said it’s shifting focus to higher-growth areas, such as chips for data center machines and connected devices.<p>Where have I heard this before? I think in a little book called the "Innovator's Dilemma". Can anyone predict what happens next?<p>I wonder if Intel will try to push Atom into "Core i3" and make <i>single-core</i> Core i7's next to "increase profitability". They've already started making dual-core Core i7s - I mean how ridiculous is <i>that</i> idea?! Isn't a dual core Core i7 supposed to be a Core i5? Do their brands still mean anything anymore?
