Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Intel has admitted that its poor performance in 2005, a year in rival chip maker AMD made significant gains and launched an antitrust legal suit against the market leader, will lead to downsizing the company.
At an analysts meeting yesterday, Intel CEO Paul Otellini reiterated
that the company will be "leaner and more agile" as a result of the
planned restructuring announced a week earlier. Otellini indicated that
the restructure will be more than just cutting its workforce but also
unprofitable businesses.
A major part of the planned restructure will involve dramatic spending
cuts in the manufacturing area, which could mean plant closures in
non-profitable businesses, which have yet to be identified.
Intel launched its new vPro business platform earlier this week, which
it hopes will revitalise its flagging performance in the PC space,
where AMD is making gains. Paul Otellini has stressed that branding,
such as vPro, Centrino and Viiv, is the way forward for the company.
In June 2005, rival AMD filed an antitrust suit against Intel in the US
federal district court of Delaware alleging Intel had unlawfully
maintained its monopoly in the x86 microprocessor market by coercing
customers around the world not to deal with AMD.
