Abstract :
During the 1980s, Intel Corporation transformed itself from a semiconductor company producing memory chips into a computer company [1]. Intel´s transformation was actually part of a revolution in the entire electronics industry: In the beginning of the decade, microprocessors were considered to be toys, and the computer industry was dominated by mainframes and minicomputers made by vertically integrated companies. By the end of that decade, microprocessors became the standard engines for computing platforms, and the whole industry was restructured. Many more vendors entered the industry, each specializing in different areas.
