I just don't think, regardless of financial situation, Intel would want to sell even a portion of their business. right now. Everything they've communicated to their shareholders and the public at large signals that despite a recent downturn, they really believe they have a strategy for long-term market dominance.
Not to mention the entire national security angle of intel being the only American chip manufacturer.
Good points. I guess what I should have more accurately said is that Intel has a long standing working relationship with the American government.
Given that Intel is an asset to national security. I think any sort of buyout would be under intense scrutiny.
I did miss that Qualcomm was also American though, but I still think about it would be treacherous regardless.
Things don't just become a national security asset that easily, though, a long-standing relationship with trust is something incredibly important.
