I know... But Intel is not obsolete. AMD's record quarterly earnings of 3.4 Billion is twice what they made a year ago... Still much smaller than Intel's 19.7 billion revenue.
Intel is planning much more performance per watt for the same transistor sizes than AMD/Samsung/TSMC, they recently came up with a roadmap how to regain their crown. We will see how it plays out, I am sure that others will not be sitting on their hands either.
