Kash - Re: "Intels acquisition history has been exceptionally poor - its attempts to dominate the graphics market have been very poor, and the Chips and Tech acquisition has clearly been a bust."

Correct - major f*ck up on Intel's part.

Re: " It purchased the server chip sets guys (corrolory???) and have lost tons of design wins to reliance. "

Wrong.

Reliance offers no 8-way SMP chip sets - just 2 and 4. Intel's 8-way set - from the Corollary acquisition - is THE DOMINANT chip set in x86 SMP servers.

Re: "Intel is indeed trying to put the pieces together for this exploding market but it is NO prescence in the wirless hand held area except in commodity flash. Intels DSP group so far has been a non-starter in this area. "

In the terms of the AMDroids - look at how much POTENTIAL Intel has in these markets !
