Only after it become clear to the public that there was actually a flaw, did they acknowledge there was a flaw but it was a small and insignificant. They would only replace it if the user could prove that they needed an unflawed processor. This caused IBM to immediately stop all sales of their computers that featured the Pentium chip, forcing Intel to agree to replace all flawed microprocessors with

the ever-changing industry they are part of. Intel Corporation is one of these companies. Intel was “founded in 1968 to build semiconductor memory, while in 1971 produced the first microprocessor” (Intel Corporation, 2005). Being that Intel needs to keep up with the constant change of microprocessors, motherboards, and other computer and communication products, they need to have a management team that adapts to this fast-paced environment. For Intel Corporation, the three factors that influence

The company delivered what the customers exactly want with “rock-bottom prices” (krames, 2003, p.59). With

The Pentium microprocessor flaw is a division error with floating point numbers; it was first discovered by Intel testers in June of 1994. Intel managers said the problem was so small it would not affect very many people, so they carried on with production and told no one outside of the company. They were right that it only affected a few customers, however not disclosing this made Intel look untrustworthy. Within that same month Dr.Nicely tested 486 Pentium machines two different ways narrowing
