Hi Goutama,

RE: "assessing current market value of AMD's Communications group."

You had mentioned the revenue is $300m. Awhile ago, for fun, I took a look at a publicly available database which lists businesses for sale. Assuming I'm remembering the following figures correctly (it's been awhile since I looked at this), it appeared the distressed businesses or those businesses with luke warm prospects were going for around =< 1/2 R (Revenue), the profitable but boring ones were going for 1/2R to 1X, while the better ones were going for a little bit more than 1X. This database didn't have the hot areas. Hot network areas would go for much more than 1X.

Regards,

Amy J
