On the heels of the launch of Tiger Lake and Evo platforms, we caught up with Intel's Chris Walker to understand the motivation behind this standardization, response from OEMs and consumers, how it builds upon Project Athena, what to expect from it from an end-users perspective, and what the future holds.

"Our imitators.." This Chris guy sounds very high & mighty speaking for a company that is already behind its competitors but still has the guts to call them imitators..

"VS: Does Evo also focus on ease of service and maintenance?

CW: It is not part of the standard so far."

lol... yeah...

Intel has spearhead ultrabook many years ago, with tons of R&D money pour in to enable the ecosystem....Isn't AMD an imitator by just sitting on the success of Intel ultrabook? AMD just need to spend energy and money on the CPU while Intel has to spend whole lot of effort in CPU, platform and ecosystem enabling.

So yes, AMD is definitely an imitators. Get it?

Sorry, but is this fair, to call a competitive rival "imitator"?? You should just wash your mouth. There is nothing bad talking about what you achieved, and even if it's way better than what competitors have done (and if this is the case here, it is not yet demonstrated), you should always pay respect for someone else work.

Intel was simply trying to fight off ARM. As ARM started to reach its hands in the bottom of the PC market.

And while light laptops are nice, some of their efforts backfired making PC less usable.

Actually, after paying close attention to the major bullet-points of this new program, it becomes evident that Intel is despaired by the fact ARM took their Apple pie, and are now rounding-up the troops to imitate what Apple is likely doing with their new ARM macbooks.

This should be a shock to no-one, as the original program already was Intel paying manufacturers to imitate what Apple had been doing for years. ARM has the efficiency, while AMD64 has the compatibility with all those legacy applications.

Throwing AMD to the mix is just a calculated distraction to the fact that Intel is losing heavily on all fronts, but they believe a win is certain in the PC realm because they have the manufacturers in the pocket with these Apple imitator programs (and other kinds of kick-backs/incentives).
