You are absolutely fucking crazy if you think anyone is going to push Intel out of the business. They own a majority of enterprise level processing (servers).
Where you'll see Intel pushed out is in the mobile/SOC stuff - ARM is big, and it's getting bigger.
No one can compete with Intel elsewhere.

Did you read the article? While Intel has been focused/spending money on taking away Qualcomm's market share on the mobile front, AMD has been gearing up to put pressure on Intel's market share on the ARM front. The article isn't stating that Intel is going out of business tomorrow, it's speculating that theymaybe in serious trouble if they keep focusing/dumping cash in the mobile market, only to continuously get beaten to the punch by Qualcomm.

I didn't quote the article, I quoted the guy saying Intel is going to be driven out of business.

I'm pretty sure everyone has known about the USB sticks that load keyboard drivers and execute scripts for a long time.

I guess this is the best spot for this. Dropbox just updated their $10/month (or $99/year) Pro plan to 1TB of space. I've been using for a couple years just at the 100GB level and loving it, but fuck, 1TB makes things like syncing my entire music collection no big deal now. Very happy to hear of this increase, because I think the only thing really keeping them from being truly awesome was the capacity. Everything else they do is (in my opinion) better than any other competitor. Now they have the space to back it up. Along with a host of other new features.
The only thing they need to fix (and maybe they have but I didn't see it) is not allowing you to install it on a network share. Sure there are probably workarounds, but it needs to be an actual feature. Particularly with a potential 1TB folder now, I don't need that on my main hard drive.

That's great news. I have a ton of free promotional space from buyign various Samsung devices, but it all runs out next year and I need to start paying for the service. 1TB is quite an improvement over 100GB. I was thinking about just going the Google Drive route, but I like Dropbox better. It's a no-brainer now.
