<You give too much credit to a guy who is diversifying into Communications and Internet (bith areas that Intel has no clue about) because of competitive threat from a small $2B company!>

You must be kidding. Diversifying because of a "competitive threat from a small $2B company"? I'm afraid Craig has a little more vision than that. That little "competitive threat" has been around for quite a while. The only thing AMD has going for them right now is a small window of opportunity. Meanwhile, Craig is more worried about continuing to make a massive corporation grow by 20% a year, which isn't going to happen without diversification.

Once again, why hasn't Merced been cancelled? Seems like an awful amount of resources being poured into a product that can't hold a candle to Athlon, much less the RISC competition like Alpha, Ultrasparc, and PowerPC.
