Intel Corporation is the largest semiconductor manufacturer in the world, with major facilities
in the United States, Europe, and Asia. Intel has changed the world dramatically since it was
founded in 1968; the company invented the microprocessor, the 'computer on a chip' that
made possible the first handheld calculators and personal computers (PCs). By the early 21st
century, Intel's microprocessors were found in more than 80 percent of PCs worldwide. The
company's product line also includes chipsets and motherboards; flash memory used in
wireless communications and other applications; hubs, switches, routers, and other products
for Ethernet networks; and embedded control chips used in networking products, laser
printers, imaging devices, storage media, and other applications. Intel remained competitive
through a combination of clever marketing, well-supported research and development,
superior manufacturing proficiency, a vital corporate culture, legal proficiency, and an
ongoing alliance with software giant Microsoft Corporation often referred to as 'Wintel.'
Intel faces significant competition in the development and market acceptance of our products
in this environment. Its platforms, based on Intel architecture, are positioned to compete
across the compute continuum, from the lowest power and mobile devices to the most
powerful data center servers. These platforms have integrated hardware and software and
offer customers benefits such as ease of use, savings in total cost of ownership, and the ability
to scale systems to accommodate increased usage.
In the PC market segment, Intel is a leading provider of platforms for traditional desktops and
notebooks. We face existing and emerging competition in these product areas. Tablets,
phones, and other mobile devices offered by numerous vendors are significant competitors to
traditional PCs for many usages and considerable blurring of system form factors currently
exists in the marketplace. Intel is a relatively recent provider of platforms for tablets and
phones, and we face strong competition from vendors that use applications processors based
on the ARM* architecture, feature low-power, long battery-life operation, and are built in SoC
formats that integrate numerous functions on one chip.
In the data center market segment, it is a leading provider of data center platforms and face
competition from companies using ARM architecture or other technologies. Internet cloud
computing, storage, and networking are areas of significant targeted growth for us in the data
center segment, and it faces strong competition in these market segments.

INE B . at the begging I analyzed and hoped that I made profit by purchasing like this way. But
