Abstract
The competitive landscape for Intel is changing with its expansion into
emerging form factors and markets, such as UMPCs/MIDs- a move that is being
prompted by the decline of the desktop PC market. The silicon giant now finds
itself battling with new competitors, such as ARM and VIA in the low-power,
emerging form factors and consumer electronics space, as well as with more
traditional competitors, such as AMD and IBM. This report examines all of
these competitors and comes to the conclusion that while Intel is
well-positioned owing to its strengths in microprocessors and chipsets, as
well as R&D and manufacturing, it will face some interesting and competitive
years ahead. In-Stat also believes that mounting costs and competitive
pressures and an emphasis on systems, software, and services will cause IBM to
eventually exit the semiconductor manufacturing business.
Included in this report are:
- Details on each competitor' s strategies and competitive advantages
- SWOT Analyses for Intel and each of the primary competing companies
- Comparative analysis of each company' s strategy, product lines, product
roadmap, and prospects with those of Intel
- Comprehensive tables, offering a one-stop mechanism for locating the parts
offered in each competitor' s product lines in addition to their respective
parameters
