old products fade away slowly... it is a long, slow death march into oblivion.

Intel doesn’t know what business they are in.

Kodak was in the memory business not film. They are gone.

If Intel was in the compute business they’d have seen mobile, graphics, AI. They are too fascinated with protecting their walled garden and milking the profits and suing AMD.

The foundry business is about serving your customers. Listen to Pat, talk about leadership or 5 in 4, has he every said serving your customers is priority?

They will fail it’s a certainty

Duh. Why do you thing Intel is embracing the foundry business?

x86 peaked 3 years ago. In 10 years there won't be enough profit in it.

Years ago, some intel ceo said: if we don't make our cpus obsolete, someone else will.
Don't remember which ceo said that, too long ago.
Intel chose to simply increase ASPs and spend money on marketing and propaganda instead of innovation.
So now, bye-bye intel.

Apple changed CPU's 2 times already,Motorola and Intel and now arm.

However Apple is better that Microsoft and in here there are thousands of machines and dozens of cpu's. Not as easy

Thanks for the interesting article.

Since Windows apps are programmed at an API, changing processors shouldn't be too hard.

In fact, way back, Windows NT ran on a few different chips. Running apps on different hardware should be easy, since the app really doesn't need to know what hardware it runs on.

I think you are right: "x86 end of life approaches".
