Pat Gelsinger, who got Intel out of the Rocket Lake rut, has announced his resignation as the company's CEO. He hasn't announced an immediate successor, and the company will be led in the interim by David Zinsner and Michelle (MJ) Johnston Holthaus. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-CEO-Pat-Gelsinger-announces-abrupt-retirement.926904.0.html
Boohoo. In the future I never want to touch Intel/AMD again. My most recent and LAST Intel machine was/IS a 11th gen. In a few years China will release much superior products to compete with Intel/AMD. Not that China already doesn't already have them BUT they're currently not very cost effective nor powerful.
Not to mention the accompanying OS. I wouldn't have stuck around with Intel for so long were it not for Windows...

Curious: what will you buy instead?
A year, and many consumers highly-concerned feedback ignored, too late.
The huge difference in an AMD failure vs an Intel failure is, Intel, arrogance rules Intel, while just incompetence is seared into AMD.

Only concerning the last 12 months, consumers have mentioned
- still too high consumption of chips other than Lunar Lake,
- happy with Lunar Lake for its efficiency at low consumption but too few OEMs get their devices right,
- unhappy with Lunar Lake at medium to high consumption because AMD is faster or more efficient there,
- prices do not reflect subpar features of the chips.
I think that earlier disappointments related to security gaps and 13th/14th gen arrogance towards consumers weigh higher. Not to mention the +++++++ years. What other concerns do you think consumers have?
