Intel is hurting badly. AMD looks like it's going to clobber the titan in the desktop and server market. Intel has been missing schedules and shipping bad products far too late to market. It's just had to recall the P4. It's 64-bit architecture will actually run 32-bit applications slower. AMD's sledgehammer is going to kill them on the server and desktop market. AMD's Athlon already is the fastest processor on the market and eating the high margin server end. AMD has already conquered the low margin cheap end with their K6-2 series.
Now Transmeta is going to kill them on the mobile and appliance market - leading edge vendors are actually biting. Intel's chip line is in big trouble.
Andy Grove, it's not paranoia you've got. The sharks are circling!

Anthrax was always such a great social engineer. It's good to see his creative side at work in this nice piece of fiction.
