Intel, which makes 80% of the world's processors, posted quarterly profits and revenues below expectations, as the chipmaker suffered from weaker demand for desktop processors. This news also sent shares of the number one PC manufacturer and Intel's largest customer, Dell (DELL), lower, along with Apple Computer (AAPL). Intel acknowledged it lost market share to rival Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) in the quarter, punctuated by weaker than expected holiday demand. The bright spot was the continued robust growth in servers with the Opteron. Net income rose 16% to $2.45 bln, or $0.40 per share, from $2.12 bln, or $0.33 a year earlier. Sales rose 6.3% to $10.2 bln. Analysts had expected a profit of $0.43 and revenues of $10.56 bln. I suppose Kimberly is referring to Intel; Correct?
