Intel's 23 percent revenue growth in the first half and our increasing confidence in the second half of 2011 position us to grow annual revenue in the mid-20 percent range."Highlights

I just wish they had a kickback program for all the Intel lovin' we spread in the forums:D
Just not to fall at sleep... :rolleyes:
The platform average selling price (ASP) was approximately flat sequentially and up year-over-year.
And wondered, what exactly is the ASP? $200? $300? $100? I wonder if it's a consumer based price or mass vendor price.
