Intel today reported what it says was its best ever quarter in history. Its revenue in spring surged 34 percent year-over-year to $10.8 billion and was boosted further by a net profit of $2.9 billion, which itself was up 175 percent compared to spring 2009. The semiconductor firm also touted a three percent increase in the gross margin on its products (to 67 percent) and a slight boost to the average price of a chip.
