    Companies as big as Intel don’t typically go poof, they have bankruptcy proceedings and sell off their assets. If those assets contractually can’t be sold, then yeah AMD would be the remaining owner.

      They are losing money hand over fist right now though and have basically broken hundreds of agreements they have already been paid for…
      I do agree - I believe what would happen is they would be split up, as per most of these things, and the US govt would ensure that the X86 division remains american. I would imagine the real issue here is not the cpus but the fabs as they are the things really underperforming and have for at least a decade now
