It's only been a few weeks since a Reuters news report suggested that Qualcomm had been eyeballing Intel's chip design business and now it's being claimed the maker of the Snapdragon X processor has approached Intel with the view to a full takeover. It's a nice story, but it's just going to happen.
This latest rumour comes from the Wall Street Journal but CNBC has also reported the same thing, i.e. Qualcomm has approached Intel about the possibility of a takeover. Neither publication provides much in the way of details but both remark that Qualcomm and Intel declined to comment on the matter, as you'd expect.
