Intel reports record turnover and doubles up on profit
Intel reached a new high as they had a record revenues of $ 14.8 billion USD in the second quarter of this year. That is a 9 percent growth over the same period in 2016.
The quarterly profit has risen from $ 1.3 billion ($ 1.11 billion) last year to $ 2.8 billion (2.4 billion) in the past three months. Thuis Intels profits have been doubled.
The revenues increases mainly are based on, among other things, to the growth in data centers. Revenues totaled $ 4.4 billion (3.77 billion), 9 percent more than a year earlier. Intel exceeded expectations of analysts with its quarterly figures.
The strong results make Intel positive about the expectations for the rest of the year. The company expects an annual turnover of $ 61.3 billion. A good 1.3 billion dollars more than previously anticipated.

They aren't, hence as ive said the figures are inflated for "good report".
In actuality, at least 50% of those profits goes out as bribes (IF not more lol!).

Monopoly is bad, ok?
In the short term? Yes.
On the long run? Who knows?
Personally I will avoid buying Intel unless they have the best price/performance at my budget level, witch I doubt.

Intel's glorious years have passed, future lies with AMD / Nvidia / ARM.

Intel should be forced to give an year ´s profit to AMD to even out things...
It´s ridiculous the amount of money some companies make every year...

They've been doing it for 20 years, through multiple lawsuits - I think it's pretty good in the long run too.

Interesting, AMD and Intel both doing well. Something tells me both can't do well for to long, one will have to loose market share and profits that go with it.

Why would they bribe anyone if there is no competition anyway?
Also, lying on official earning calls is a felony.
They make the majority of their money from professional sales, ie. datacenter and the like, where there hasn't been any competition for years and years. If that changes in the future we'll see, but earnings are for the past, not the future. :p

That's not how it works and I hope you're not serious.

Ya, why Intel would pay to MS and Nvidia for work better with their cpu (if detect intel cpu it runs optimized code, if not then run completly unoptimized - in os, directx api, drivers, games (because of ms visual c++ etc)...) or pay to distributors to sell only their products... It make no sense, what would they gain?... except profit...
btw https://youtu.be/osSMJRyxG0k
PS. AMD should start support alternative systems (like ReactOS) because MS only rub Intel back.. Why ReactOS? Because it is natively most compatible os with windows and it can be alternative os for pc game industry in future, and it can be well optimized for amd if they want.

Clearly you aren't familiar with what Intel has been doing for past 40 years.
The amount of bribes they make yearly just to sit on top as monopolist. The amount of cases that are open against Intel's anti consumer, anti technology, anti free market practices is staggering. 1.4 Billion EU commission lawsuit alone is a nice example.
Start your research with this great video - https://youtu.be/osSMJRyxG0k as an example.
P.S.
haha reps to chronek, posted exactly the same video.

I was under the impression that Intel only did this in the Athlon era because the Athlon destroyed Pentium back in the day and later they´re found out and stopped it. Correct me if i´m wrong, please.
Because like nevcairiel said there´s no point in bribing people when there´s no competition...
