Legit Reviews noticed that Intel's Haswell processor doesn't seem to be selling well. According to JP Morgan, PC sales will be down 8.3 percent this year, and it seems that just like Microsoft's Windows 8, Intel's new chip isn't capable of turning the market around.
Authors at Seeking Alpha have the same thoughts on Haswell and even said that Haswell is faltering. They mainly blame poor innovation on the software side of things. They have a point as there really isn't a killer app that makes you want to run out and buy Haswell or say Ivy Bridge. Maybe Intel's upcoming TV service that is going to be called OnCue will be the home run that Intel hopes it will be. Intel also has BayTrail coming out though and that is going to be critical for the chip giant to do well with.
