It will be very weird if Intel falls, indeed.  Seeing PC manufacturers like 
Dell and even Microsoft releasing computers with Snapdragon processors is 
surreal.  I'm 44.  Like the IBM PC, we both were introduced in 1981 LOL.  My 
whole life being into computers, Intel has been one of the constants in an 
industry always changing.  It was weird when IBM quit making PCs, and it will 
be weird if Intel shifts to something else and x86 is no longer the dominant 
processor for PCs/Windows machines.

.... And now for something completely different.
