I think this is probably accurate. I think the board is struggling with the amount of financial outlay and the weaker than expected returns. I don’t think Pat or the board thought things would get this bad before they got better. I do think they could have managed public sentiment a bit better. While they have been struggling it would have been smart to have an enthusiast gaming cpu that outclassed AMD even if it they lost money on it. Most of the tech sites that review cpus are enthusiast oriented. I don’t believe things are as dire as they look for Intel.
