Intel is not going to just surrender the server market. We have seen that several times before. (AMD) starts executing, makes a lot of money and then, boom -- Intel reacts.

The PC business is the least of their problems. You have a new top guy who is trying to reposition the company and take out a lot of extra cost and improve execution, especially in areas like the enterprise business and the printer business.
