Gene - Re: "if they keep responding to Intel with lower
prices, where is it all going to end up?"

Look at AMD's balance sheet and Cash Flow - then do the same for Intel.

Intel can drive down CPU prices until even Intel loses money - and Intel has >$8 billion in the bank.

What many people seem to ignore is the fact that it is not how cheap they can sell computers - or even if they are given away for free. The goal in business is to make money - for the company, employees and shareholders.

Market share isn't helpful when you have convinced customers that there is no value in the product that you sell them - they will expect that product to be essentially free. If the vendor selling that product goes out of business - then who cares?
