holy shit. it really is the end, isn't it? cut the company into pieces and sell to the highest bidder. three letter agencies would be interested... a couple months ago.
To be fair, they are elected by shareholders, so it does make sense to prioritize shareholders.

But with a company like Intel, one does really need long term vision to maximize value in the long run. We don't know if he's looking for quick fixes (short term) or long term fixes.

He's been on the board that hired the last 3 CEOs, so I have little faith in their getting things right.
