| Abstract: | Some 55 million Intel-powered personal computers will be sold this year. Chief executive Andrew S. Grove has already built Intel into an $11.5 billion powerhouse: the biggest and richest chipmaker in the world. Grove's motivation is simple, and the voluble executive has been perfectly upfront about it: To support the huge - and growing - costs of developing and building microprocessors, Intel needs to generate huge profits. The company now spends approximately $1 billion to design a microprocessor and then plows 1 billion into each plant that builds it. |
