I knew Intel was in dire straights, but this confirms it was so much worse than we thought. Kills the brand for me permanently though. Will be interesting to see if its saves the company or if it is just stay of execution.

I don't think the market will love the socialism to be honest.

In the short term for sure. Last time I bought Intel was 2011. Probably jumped the gun on ryzen but it's been smooth sailing. Built a friend's PC with 8th Gen was the last time I built with it. But they could have always made a comeback like AMD did. This is the signal they probably can't. I guess at least it the government and not Trump directly. It's probably also Trump directly though.
