根据当地媒体《俄勒冈人》的报道，英特尔现任 CEO 鲍勃·斯万（Bob Swan, 也译作司睿博）在近期一次内部员工对话会中提到公司会“推迟决定把部分核心业务外包出去的事宜”，而由在二月中旬即将上任的新任 CEO 帕特·基尔辛格（Pat Gelsinger）做最终决定。帕特本人也参加了这次会议，并对未来产品目标提出展望：“我们必须要给个人电脑生态圈带来比竞争对手更好的产品”他提出,“至少要比那个在库比蒂诺市兜售生活方式的(公司)更好”。库比蒂诺市的“果园(Apple Park)”他指的当然是最近苹果公司自研的 M1 芯片。虽然该芯片是 ARM 架构，但用户日常使用体验并不比之前沿用了数十年的 x86 架构英特尔芯片差很多。业界观察认为苹果就此摆脱了对英特尔芯片的长期依赖，进一步增强了其在供应链管控中的强势地位。
According to the local media Oregonian, the current CEO of Intel, Bob swan, mentioned in a recent internal staff dialogue that the company would "postpone the decision to outsource some of its core businesses", with pat Gelsinger, the new CEO who will take office in mid February, making the final decision. Pat himself took part in the meeting and put forward the prospect of future product goals: "we have to bring better products to the PC ecosystem than our competitors." he said, "at least better than the (company) selling lifestyle in Cupertino.". "Apple Park" in Cupertino, of course, refers to the M1 chip developed by Apple recently. Although the chip is based on ARM architecture, the user's daily experience is not much worse than Intel chip based on x86 architecture which has been used for decades. Industry observers believe that Apple has got rid of its long-term dependence on Intel chips, further enhancing its strong position in supply chain management and control.
