Intel throwing shit at AMD claim they are reusing desktop cpu's for server

Guys, when intel lost their atom line it was BAD news for everyone..

At that point in time it was in intels best interest that software becomes properly multithreaded

..so that the performance / power consumption would be there on their x86 tablets / phones that they were planning on moving too

This is just me musing...

now that atom is dead in the water and one of their core markets are under attack I wonder what they are going to do about the lower level api's which renders the need for high ipc almost obsolete?

What I am trying to say is with atom/iot dead and buried... if this was a battle it would basically be the equivalent of your castle being attacked with nowhere left to retreat to.
