What Jamie wrote

Gruber's take on Intel downfall is a good read and he invokes one of my very favorite quotes from former Intel CEO Andy Grove "Only the paranoid survive". He goes on to highlight how Intel stopped being paranoid. Intel survived one massive miss when they entirely lost the mobile market. Intel had a chance. Apple themselves would have worked with them on the iPhone. But Intel wasn't willing to do it. After missing the mobile wave, now they have completely missed the GPU. I still think Intel will survive but the path is going to be horrible and may take a decade or more.
