      This is probably true and will be the death-nell of Intel.

      GPU/FPU has been driving the success of the companies eating Intel’s lunch. If Intel stops on this front, they’re Texas Instruments all over again.

    • I’m hoping Intel keeps their GPU division as they basically get free driver development support from the community but yeah, there’s a good chance this is getting axed

      I’m guessing it’s the Wifi business that’s going to be sold. Also, the prefabs might be spun off. But Intel still needs a GPU division, if at the very least just for integrated GPUs, but we might see the end of dedicated Intel GPU’s as they pivot to compete against AMD’s APU’s.

      That’s my take, at least.
