Intel has announced it will discontinue making desktop motherboards after 2016.
Intel has decided to move to other form factors, see later, but will still make reference chipsets for the Asian motherboard manufacturers such as ASUS and GIGABYTE.
The decision comes as no surprise given the bleak PC sales in 2012. Dell and HP’s PC and laptop sales have declined in the order of 20% in the last year. Intel will focus on it’s ULTRABOOK the half tablet half laptop which is being marketed aggressively by OEM manufacturers at the present.
Recently , within the space of a week, I have worked on 3 dell PC’s running Windows Vista which have all suddenly lost their internet access. On closer inspection it turned out that these machines had serious network issues ranging from being unable to ping their default gateway or worse still they could not get an IP address from their ADSL/Router.
The common thread between these machines was Vista and McAfee and the fix was to uninstall and reinstall McAfee on these machines.
