Intel Corp (INTC)

[Golfbum]

I regard all of the hand wringing about the obvious marketing misnaming of the various processes as a waste of time.

The customers who have products built on the various foundry processes only want to know if the next process will work better than the last and give them a price/performance outcome that is favorable.

If someone wanted to use Intel as their foundry they would do so on the basis of their understanding perhaps from some test chips that represent what they would build. That's likely how they decide the relative technical merits among the candidate foundries. And technical merit of process is only one of many factors in the decision.

Cheering various players from the sidelines is useless crapola.
