I wonder when the heads are finally going to start to roll from Intels upper management.

This is why GloFo should have stayed the course. At this point, they could possibly have been reaping a bounty as well as TSMC.

If AMD is so much better why Intel has shortages?

I'm proud Ryzen 3900 owner!

It takes a long time for the industry to shift. In the server market, the transition can be exceptionally long, especially since AMD was basically absent between Opteron and EPYC.

Swan hasn't been in the job too long, and inherited a lot of these problems. So, maybe he'll get a pass, for now.

Their 7 nm also reportedly had problems. Who knows how long that would've taken to sort out, and whether it would've been competitive at the end?

FWIW, I wouldn't have minded seeing the US government buy a stake in them, just to help support US semiconductor manufacturing. IMO, this would've made more sense than Trump pressuring TSMC to build a US fab.
