<<But I do find it frustrating that Intel's customers, like Dell and Gateway, are benefiting more from Intel's superb execution than Intel seems to be.>> You are not the only one who felt this way. The trick is buy some of those guys shares to support them. We still have a lot more to go on high end servers and mainframe. There is still a lot of money to be made to go after IBM. In the mean time put some of your money to those Intel Only box makers.

Harry - Re: " But I do find it frustrating that Intel's customers, like Dell and Gateway, are benefiting more from Intel's superb execution than Intel seems to be."

Dell is a PC company and has thousands of customers.

Intel is a CPU manufacturer and has a hundred or two customers.

The cost of factories, overhead, etc. are considerably lower for Dell. Let's face it - A lot of Intel's R & D becomes FREE R & D for Dell!

Yes and no - Grove has been doing this very same thing for about 5 or 8 years. By giving up the CEO title, he is stepping away from day-to-day activities and focusing more on just "industry expansion" issues.
