Excerpt: Brian M. Krzanich, who on Thursday was named Intel’s next chief executive, knows he faces a hefty challenge when he takes over the world’s biggest maker of semiconductors, Quentin Hardy reports in The New York Times. The company, which became a household name through its “Intel inside” stickers on personal computers, is still the king of PC chips. But that is a shrinking business, and Intel is a laggard in making chips for hot products like smartphones and tablets.

Over the longer term, 3D printing has potential to reshape the manufacturing ecosystem, but it will have the most impact in the near term for products that are made in small volumes, require high customization, and are more cost-tolerant. They predict the consumer market will "remain a niche", predicting consumers will spend only USD$894M in 2025, up from USD$17M today.... read the full post.
