Intel's Business Outlook does not include the potential impact of any business combinations, asset acquisitions, divestitures, strategic investments and other significant transactions that may be completed after January 14. Please note: Our Full-Year 2016 and Q1 2016 Business Outlook includes the expected results of our recently completed acquisition of Altera, an additional week in the first quarter due to 2016 being a 53-week year and a change in the estimated useful lives for our machinery and equipment in our factories from four to five years.
The acquisition of Altera was completed in early fiscal year 2016, which means that the 2016 guidance includes the expected results for the FPGA business. As a result of the Altera acquisition, we have acquisition-related charges that are primarily non-cash. Our guidance for the first quarter and full-year 2016 include both GAAP and non-GAAP estimates.

is that enough to buy amd every 2 weeks?
$25 billion in cash and short term investments. Not too shabby for a company that remains vertically integrated in this day and age of cutthroat semiconductor business. Real men have fabs indeed.
On July last year, Google gained $66 billion in ONE day.
Come on Intel!!! I've had it with my Q6600! I want to give you money and you can't produce fast enough!
Imaging how much they would profit getting rid of them across the product line.
AMD will be reporting 2015 Earnings after the markets close today (about 1/2 hour) and it's looking ugly. 2016 should be a little better but if AMD can't offer some decent competition for Intel then prices even for mainstream Intel chips may go up as well in the future.
