What you are trying to say is that Intel has no viable business plan on desktop/laptop market segment. That is they have no idea how to create a technically justified demand for their higher-end products. No wonder their PC division has decreasing revenues. Why don't they start producing a popular software for masses, that runs on PCs (rather than in clouds), and demands high CPU power?
In a sense their PC partner Microsoft also has no idea either how to make higher-end PCs technically attractive, but they at least have new revenue models like subscriptions rather than purchases and getting commissions from software store to make up for that.
