Intel as a "Computing Company"

One of the key messages that Otellini wanted to deliver to a crowd of financial analysts gathered in Santa Clara, Calif. is that Intel is pushing well beyond its core microprocessor manufacturing business, to software and services. "Don't think of us as a chip company anymore," Otellini says. "We are a computing company."

The big opportunity for Intel is to put its chips and related software into all kinds of "smart" devices, places where computing hasn't typically been found. That will be your television, your power-meter, and your washing machine. "These markets are going to explode," Otellini says. "They are all existing businesses, but they are going to be transformed by the microprocessor, by being connected to the Internet and by the server in the sky."
