Apple Must Counter The Intel-Microsoft Threat ( Go Read SA Article) by Micheal Blair

! Intel has been barely evident in mobile with the exception of its sizeable share in the server market so necessary to support the cloud computing on which mobile depends. That is about to change. Intel has released dramatic advances in microprocessors codenamed Haswell and Silvermont which promise power and battery life not heretofore present in mobile. Intel's design reference for tablets, hybrids and ultrabooks called North Cape shows the future of these devices and they are pointed directly at Apple's key markets. Already, Windows and Android-based competitors such as Hewlett-Packard (HPQ), Lenovo, Dell (DELL), Samsung, Toshiba, Sony, Acer, Asus and Microsoft have unleashed over 200 variants of Windows 8 and Android touch screen devices based on Intel microprocessors and these will only become more compelling when they offer traditional Intel processing power with very long battery lives in a small footprint. Intel powered phones are already in the market and more are not far behind.
