Dan, Elmer, Intel as it stands today is a creation government intervention in the markets - torn from IBM by the FTC.

In those days the government didn't want companies to be "too big to fail" or create dangerous concentrations of power. Eisenhauer cautioned of the Military Industrial Complex. He may have not fully understood the future, how could he, but a very perceptive observation and applicable to the many Interwoven ____ Complexes of today.

The theme in recent years has been to create a larger pig with more nipples. A big sow can be pretty dangerous. Which is born out by current events.

Edit: I see the Insters have taken exception (4-5 responses) to what you said. Maybe it is the part about how Intel was created.
