The decline after hours is based on a disappointing sales forecast.

Perhaps, the Moore's law is not quite dead yet, but is dying, due to heating constraints on CPU frequency (it has not increased much in the last 5 years), which makes the new CPUS more difficult to sell. This may not be good news for Intel, AMD, or any other tech company that lives off PC upgrade cycle. It will get longer. Consumer got used to judge CPUs not by the number of transistors, rather, it's clock speed. Somehow I think Microsoft will be headed the way Apple was before Jobs was back, since Bill Gates is retiring. The intention of non-founding Harvard MBA executive CEOs is to rob the company, rather than care about it. What, me worry? It's not my money. This is socialism.
