To me, whether it’s intel or not, these sticks are the foundation of that computer that follows you everywhere more than say, eoma68. Soemthing that can slowly evolve into a standard rather than the standard itself being enforced top down from inception. WiGig style docking could ease the cabling issues and have your pc stick work as the guts for multiple devices simultaneously (ex.gutless dumb phone and lapdock). Continuum with HP Elite and ARM is like an interesting prototype. Continuum across 4-5 screen types powered by Core M feels like something that actually works.

You know who you should track down for LPX? Steve Perlman at Artemis in re pCell. The core tech is a workaround for bandwidth scarcity that bypasses the old understanding of Shannon’s law by exploiting interference rather than fighting it, and it can work on existing networks (i.e., it can replace LTE but it can also enhance it). One interesting part is that they have hinted that this tech has wireless power delivery potential as well. Most existing coverage happened years ago when this was a proof of concept and I think almost none of it explored the wireless power possibilities beyond mentioning they exist. You might be able to get ahead of the coverage curve on them before they’re hot news again.

You can safely skip interviewing marketing folks as they mostly speak the same old vague B.S. Opening my car windows saved me from a catastrophic dozing off …..
Intel has a tough ‘row to hoe’ as the x86 is more complex and expensive than its competition. Too bad AMD didn’t ditch the obsolescent parts of the architecture when they went to 64 bits.
