Intel Corp. Claims Record Core i5 and Core i7 Product Mix

It's no secret that the personal-computer market has been on the decline for years. People simply aren't buying as many computers as they used to as devices like smartphones and, to a lesser degree, tablets have taken over tasks that used to be exclusively the domain of desktop and notebook PCs.

Despite this decline, chipmaker Intel (NASDAQ: INTC), which supplies most of the world's PC processors, has been able to compensate for the contraction of PC units shipped by encouraging customers to buy increasingly powerful computers with faster, more expensive Intel processors.
