InvisibleSHIELD. Scratch Proof your iPhone 4!“Intel confirmed fears on Friday and dropped its expectations for its summer results based on a slump in PC sales,” Electronista reports. “It dropped its revenue outlook from a range of $11.2 billion to $12 billion down to $11 billion with a range of $200 million above or below. The company pinned the drop on “weaker than expected demand” among home PCs.”
