Re: "I would have thought that AMD would have "learned" something from NSM sale of Cyrix. Yes Elmer ... I have to agree, they are "brilliant"."

NSM sold off a money loser and immediately turned the company around. The shareholders have benefited enormously as a result there of. AMD refuses to take the shareholders interests to heart but rather chooses to sell off profitable divisions to fund an idiotic policy that has resulted in losses of well over $1 Billion, with no end in sight. During the technology explosion over the last 15 years AMD is perhaps the only company of significance that has lost value for their shareholders. AMD has never produced a profit from any inhouse processor design and never will. Rather than pump money into Flash, PLDs and communication, they sell them off to feed the giant loser. They are literally cutting off good tissue to feed the cancer. At this point blame has to be placed where it belongs and that's with the shareholders who allow this travesty to go on. Jerry Sanders is the only thing standing in the way of share price appreciation and they love this guy.
