Even now I can't believe after all the money and time spent in getting atom to be respected and sold as serious tablet/phone competitors to arm chips he just abruptedly dropped them all [...]

The only reason anyone ever gave Atom any attention at all in mobile is because they came wrapped in a $20... Stop kidding yourself.

Since Grove all the CEOs have been hit and miss.

I take it nobody wants to take a shot at when design would have had to start on a mobile chip that BK could have actually sold without the special wrapping?

How far back do we have to push the "poor execution" blame to avoid contemplating the simple fact that Intel is not structurally equipped to beat ARM "from below?" That their currently diminished manufacturing lead might just trace back to CAPEX cuts that were coincident with the worst of the mobile bloodletting?
