Company Overview
| Company: | Intel Corporation |
|---|---|
| Industry: | Microprocessors, Microcontrollers & DSPs |
| Website: | http://www.intel.com |
Intel is still #1 in semiconductors, but profits and chip demand are shrinking. The company holds about 80% of the market share for microprocessors that go into desktop and notebook computers, and also into computer servers. Archrival AMD ate into Intel's market share for a time, but the big guy fought back with faster processors and advanced manufacturing technology. Intel also makes embedded semiconductors for the industrial equipment and networking gear markets. While most computer makers use Intel processors -- PC giants Dell (18% of sales) and Hewlett-Packard (20%) are the company's largest customers -- computer sales are plummeting. The Asia/Pacific region generates more than half of Intel's revenues.
