Say Goodbye to ‘Intel Inside’

Intel Inside, the tag line that Intel has been using for the past 16 years, appears to be on its way out, according to reports. If the reports are true, Intel is ready to roll out a new identity the first week of January to coincide with a new advertising campaign. While rumors of this have been circulating since November, little else had been said until this point.

The Intel Inside logo was first introduced way back in 1991, when a PC in your home was something like a Porsche in your driveway. Since then, love them or hate them, “Intel Inside” has become one of the most recognizable trademarks worldwide.
