#2Intel has been doing great as a business... In the sense of increasing margins and making customers pay for every little thing. (Except for integrated graphics, which are worthless, see

Intel's "headlesless" is a consequence of harvesting for years.

I wouldn’t call it worthless. Unless you’re a gamer or AI/ML-geek they are perfectly adequate for regular desktop needs like browsing the web or writing code.
I certainly don’t long for a descrete GPU.
In fact this is the only thing I miss going to Ryzen. Now I’ll have to buy a GPU.

#4That's a pretty good title, in a literary sense.

#7Can we please not use the term "WOO" just because AMD's CEO happens to be a woman ? Just don't. It's not hard.

#8Ugh. The last thing CPU customers need is Intel without proper competition again. What Su is doing at AMD seems almost superhuman.

#9> Su, as of September 6, 2018, beneficially owns 2.43 million shares of AMD. This makes Su the firm’s largest shareholder. (https://www.investopedia.com/insights/top-3-shareholders-amd...)
Considering last year's AMD stock price development, I don't think she will leave AMD for Intel unless Intel buys AMD. But:
> Kathleen Maher, vice president at Jon Peddie Research and the editor-in-chief of JPR's TechWatch Report, told us, “Obviously, the idea of Intel acquiring AMD is something that bubbles up from time to time, as does the idea of Nvidia acquiring AMD. But in that [latter] case, forget the FTC, Europe would have a cow (or whatever).”

#10No please.
I do not want a monopoly in x86.
Intel is very greedy in their cpu prices. Their consumer cpu never gave the option of ecc memory and have gimp certain things. AMD was more flexible. Having two company competing will be great for the consumers.
