Reasons for Success of Intel
In 1971 Intel had created the first viable commercially produced microchip. In 1972 they had produced a microcomputer. But still in the early 80s they were producing mostly memory devices. Due to increasing market pressure from Japanese companies, it was decided that Intel would change direction and begin producing microprocessors. At the time microprocessors were not very stable. In short, they broke all the time. Intel set out to make their microprocessor reliable and affordable. Intel had three different production facilities operational and was working with IBM to become their provider for microprocessors.
Lesson #3: The Accidental Entrepreneur is No Accidental Success
“There is such a thing as a natural-born entrepreneur, for whom the entrepreneurial urge drives everything, and who can make a business out of almost anything,” says Moore. “But the accidental entrepreneur like me has to fall into the opportunity or be pushed into it. Then the entrepreneurial spirit eventually catches on.” Moore and Noyce are evidence of the fact that entrepreneurs do not necessarily have to be born as such. Through a process of discovering their passion and being unhappy with their prospects at other companies, Moore and Noyce decided to start up their own business. It was their willingness to admit their shortcomings and seek out the help of others that the two accidental entrepreneurs in fact became two of the most successful entrepreneurs in modern time.

Lesson #4: A Healthy Dose of Paranoia Will Put You Ahead of the Curve
Intel might have become the largest semiconductor in the world, but it wasn’t without missing a few opportunities along the way. Looking back, Moore and Noyce learned the importance of harnessing the power of paranoia. To some, paranoia is a psychotic disorder characterized by delusions of persecution. However, in the business context, paranoia amounts to being highly concerned and aware of potential threats to your company. Moore and Noyce came to understand that it was also one of the key traits for entrepreneurial success.

Lesson #5: Do What You Do Better than Anyone Else
“It’s important to remember one thing that is essential for any entrepreneurial organization,” says Moore. “Do what you do well. Look at other things as incremental opportunities, but don’t change the basis of what you do well.” Moore and Noyce might have had many failed products over the years at Intel – arguably more than most successful companies – but they never strayed from their original idea as to what they wanted their company to be about. Indeed, it was by focusing on a single vision and doing that well that they increased their circle of influence and climbed to the top of the industry.

Inside Intel: Success Factors of a Company that Inspired an Industry
Today, Intel is ranked 49th on Fortune 500’s list of the top revenue grossing companies. Noyce and Moore may no longer be in charge of the daily running of the business they first founded in 1968; however, their impact on not only the company, but also the entire industry can still be felt. The maker of motherboard chipsets, network cards, flash memory drives, graphic chips, embedded processors and more, Intel is an innovator and a leader in the world of electronics and computing. How did two scientists who knew nothing about business become two of the most successful examples of entrepreneurship in history?

TAKE, SHAKE OR BREAK
Business is simple, all you have to do is TAKE, SHAKE OR BREAK. But, good Take, Shake and Break decisions and practices are essential to the continuing success of any enterprise.
Vista… If We Didn’t Have Darth Vader We’d Invent Him
Bill Gates departed Microsoft leaving Steve Ballmer in charge of a rapidly changing world. Some feel Microsoft will die under the weight of itself. Others are certain that Vista is just a symptom of the worst yet to come. But is it really that bad or is it a case of the fact that we really don't like change? After all the Mac OS has its issues as well.
Tune In - Give the Gift of Listening
Think of a time you were conversing with someone. As you talked with them you noticed the lights were on, but nobody was home. You may say they were in la la land or daydreaming. When was the last time you got the blank stare from someone? We have all probably experienced chatting with a friend or having a discussion with our spouse only to realize they are off in another world.

The Men Behind the Microchip: The Early Years of Intel Founders Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore
As self-described “accidental entrepreneurs,” Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore created what would become by far the foremost semiconductor maker in the world. They didn’t set out to create a billion dollar company or to transform an industry, but that is exactly what the pair did when they founded Intel in 1968. Though best known for its Pentium and Celeron microprocessors that can be found in more than three-quarters of the new PCs that come today, Intel also makes flash memories and embedded semiconductors. Now, with over $35 billion in revenue and annual growth standing at 13.5 percent, the legacy left by Noyce and Moore remains one of the strongest examples of innovation and entrepreneurship in the 21st century.

Intel, UNC's Coal Supply and Abbott's Bottles: When the Shoe is on the Other Foot
It was interesting in that as I was reading the story about Intel in which it is alleged that the company "Used bribery and coercion to maintain its dominance in the microprocessor market," I could not help but think that this was not the first time that the proverbial shoe was on the other foot in terms of the sometimes strained relationship between buyer and supplier.

Change has never happened this fast before, and it will never be this slow again. This shouldn't come as a surprise; Intel founder Gordon Moore observed in 1965 that since the invention of the integrated circuit in 1958 that processing power had doubled every 18 months, and predicted that this trend would continue unchecked.
