<Intel can say whatever they want. They will cut that 3000 jobs no matter what to save costs. You call it attrition. I call it lay off. These days if you are forced to resigned then it is fired. Resign sounds alot better than fire but it means the same thing.>

Maxwell, surely you know what the word attrition means. That means people who leave the company of their own choice. Even in good times when a company is hiring agressively they still have attrition. Firings and layoffs mean people lose their jobs without their own choosing, that is, against their will. That's not what is happening over at Intel, at least not to the tune of 3000 people.
