They're both very much one in the same. One (PC stagnation) is just happening before the other. Intel doesn't understand how screwed they are. They'll probably survive, but it'll be a struggle (in the long run, not anytime soon -- they have credit, assets, and cash reserves to burn).
Uh, what? You've been on infowars lately?

Intel is becoming a post-PC company
Intel wants to make clear it's not as dependent on the waning PC market, showcasing with some fanfare how its technology can make shoes, drones, even skateboards smarter.
Its results, out late Thursday, will likely reflect some of those strides. But strength from areas outside core PC chips are likely to come from supplying data centers, a market it entered via a large acquisition, than the flashier Internet of Things arena.

Intel has also been pushing hard into the Internet of Things, small, cheap sensors that are capable of sending the data they gather. IoT is a hot area, though its unclear if its going to make money any time soon, said Moorhead.
Theyre investing early in the Internet of Things because they dont want to get caught flat-footed again as they were when they missed out on the mobile phone explosion, he said.

Intel at CES this year was all about healthcare, health and wellness, creativity and gaming, said Moorhead.
Huh!? Your point being what exactly?You should read your own quote and link.
Client Computing Group had revenue of $8.8B, down 1% with platform volumes down 16% and platform average selling prices up 17%. Desktop platform volumes were down 9% and desktop platform average selling prices were up 9%. Notebook platform volumes were down 10% and notebook platform average selling prices were up 6%. Tablet volumes were down 33% and average selling prices were up significantly .
In two or three years, at this rate, PCs will make no profit for them at all.
Sorry, but you really have no idea what you're talking about.
Intel is getting hammered this morning. Anyone know why?
If you remove the Altera revenue, Intel's forward guidance for Q1 missed consensus. People also probably weren't too happy that data center group delivered an anemic 11% growth y-o-y in 2015, once again missing the company's long-term 15% target.

Any comment on the lack of modem news? I didn't see any indication that they have won a big contract in e.g. the iPhone 7, or the new compact iPhone (6C, or whatever it's called). Sounds like Intel's modems are losing out for another generation.

Right. Okay. Got it. Then just last question, so on the mobile group, at the Investor Day you talked about another $800 million improvement this year in the losses. Is this still the target and maybe talk about the progress there and whether we could see any momentum for smartphone this year with 7360? Thanks a lot.
Brian Krzanich
It is absolutely still the target. That has not changed one bit. It is a little early in the year to talk about progress. I would tell you that we have a large percentage of $800 million, already I will call it planned out.
In other words, we have projects. We know what we need to do, introduce products, align which SKUs are coming and move products on to that, so I would say a large percentage of that is well-planned through the year, but it is throughout the year, so I cannot tell I have already get $200 million of it or something like that, not here in the second, third week of the year.
7360, it is out. It is sampling, the customers are going through their validations now at the systems, where they are building up systems and out testing them on networks and so forth. As far as the launches of those systems and the announcements, those are always up to our customers and we do not make sure that we are the ones announcing that.
Then what we have told you is that, what is even as important is that we are on a yearly cadence now of our modem technology and we are very confident on that as well for the next set of modems that comes out after the 7360.
Since Brotli's decompression speed is comparable to gzip, web pages should load faster while using fewer CPU cycles, less bandwidth, and less power.
No, I get my news from the internet (Reddit), not that garbage cyanide-laced celebrity news that you get from the mainstream media. The establishment wants you to think everything is fine and dandy, so they can continually screw you over while you continually vote in those corrupt scumbags.Uh, what? You've been on infowars lately?
The problem is not that I'm being overly dramatic -- it's that most people have under-reacting to the amount of garbage going on, and it'll soon be reaching a breaking point.He's probably just being overly dramatic. But the fact remains that the PC market is shrinking and Intel's push into mobile hasn't gone as planned. I also think ARM will win the IoT emerging market as Intel products are a joke by comparison. By the time they become good the market will already be entrenched by ARM just like mobiles.
On the other hand the Datacenter market is growing and Intel has a VERY strong product lineup there. For example Intel preempted the various ARM partners to low-power 64-bit SOCs by a year or more. So overall Intel will do fine OMHO.
Agree, this is also why consumerism is dying.
The average Joe wont be able to afford much in the coming future. And this will kill technology development for pretty much everything.
And ECB will do even more QE in march and maybe -0.4%. Its Japan all over. Prepare to become poor. (Specially if you live in Europe).
Example of how Europe will turn out: (This is the reality in Japan with zerorates and QE.)
Remember how Canadians complain about technology prices? That's nothing compare to what is waiting.
Top20 semiconductor charts wont be needed anymore. Because there wont be anything close to 20 left.

It's a rather basic economic principle -- when consumers have no money to spend, due to high income inequality -- they're not going to be able to buy as much stuff. Wages haven't increased in proportion to productivity since the 70s. Americans (the US is the economy that all other nations depend upon, although this is becoming less true as time goes on) are also working more hours than any point in time since labor statistics have been collected, so that means less free time for enjoying things like consumer electronics.
But no, just brush it off as a conspiracy theory. When millions are living paycheck to paycheck, they just can't afford to upgrade their desktop every year.
It's okay though. The "free market" will sort everything out.
