The only reason why Intel isnt

2021-06-01

The only reason why Intel isnt doing worse is due to the chip shortage.

When their new fabs are up, they will (hopefully) finally have the new technology to dominate the CPU market again. Before that happens the chip shortage is keeping Intel alive.

I would say it is excellent timing

Intel: More Bad Timing
