Intel -- still #1 in semiconductors, and no longer complacent about holding the top spot. The company holds the lion's share in the market for microprocessors that go into desktop and notebook computers, and also into computer servers. Archrival AMD has eaten into Intel's market share in recent years, but the big guy has fought back with faster processors and advanced manufacturing technology. Intel also makes embedded semiconductors for the industrial equipment and networking gear markets. Most computer makers use Intel processors; PC giants Dell (18% of sales) and Hewlett-Packard (17%) are the company's largest customers. The Asia/Pacific region generates more than half of Intel's revenues.
