intel is moving to enterprise and network computing. that's why you see xeon and celeron chips. intel got its moment mostly due to low cost. back in the 80s, nobody would choose wintel/dostel if they could get an apple/motorala for the same price. if you care to remember the humble beginning of wintel, you will see it's fast becoming another ibm of the late 80s. the good thing is that wintel is actually two seperate companies so don't have to go thru a messy divorce. i'm sure msft and intc are now actively preparing for an eventual break up. 5 years from now you will see intel becoming an open source chip manufacturer, surviving purely on the efficiency of its fabs and microsoft will become an internet application and service company with a small DOS/WINDOWS emulation division.
