This sure doesn't bode well for Intel, if they believe their own crap.

Quote:Finally, Krzanich talked about Moore’s Law and how the company will continue to be at the forefront of chip development. While it’s hard to argue with Intel’s performance on dominating the PC market, we’ve seen the failure of Moore’s Law in the past two years. Intel itself is at the forefront of this failure and chip development slowdown, as the company was forced to push back its transition to 10nm chips to 2017, and release a third generation of 14nm processors. The company has even abandoned its well-known “tick-tock” cycle, because of the problems it’s facing in continuing to minimize its transistors. And while Krzanich is optimistic and mentions 5nm architectures in his article, the fundamental fact is that Intel might be trying to fight basic laws of physics and that we might soon hit a brick wall in terms of processor improvements.
All in all Intel and Brian Krzanich tried to paint a picture of optimism and a well-planned out future, but looking a bit closer the company seems to be trying everything that it can in the hope that something sticks. Intel dominated the PC processor market for many years but as the world is changing the company has a lot to prove going forward.
