Intel has dominated the chip and semiconductor industry for quite some time. Currently headed up by the apologetic Paul Ottelini, the company continues - as of publishing - to miss the boat on smartphones and tablets while backing the wrong horse (see: WiMAX, MeeGo MayBe). It turns an enormous profit and growth anyway, though it faces unexpected competition to its arrogance by the likes of Samsung, and ARM in mobile. Intel once said its processors will be able to match the compute ability of a bumble bee's brain. We're not there yet. Intel has been accused of anti-competitive mafiosa behaviour in the past and now has the FTC keeping its eye on it.
