Intel posts 'strongest second-to-third-quarter growth in over 30 years'
 

Looks like Intel wasn't kidding when it raised its revenue forecast for last quarter—the actual results surpass even the revised expectations. The chip maker has posted third-quarter revenue of $9.4 billion with $1.9 billion of net income and a 58% gross margin, marking its "strongest second-to-third-quarter growth in over 30 years." (For what it's worth, the company initially expected its Q3 revenue to reach $8.1-8.9 billion, and its latest forecast was $8.8-9.2 billion.)
