RE <<<It amazes me so much to see how this dual standard is pretty much the norm here on the AMD thread. Like it's a fact of life that Intel must be judged on higher standards than AMD.>>>

Ten, it amazes me that you would say that. Why do you think there are the different S&P and Russell indexes? On what are they predicated? Size....size does matter! And they do it this way because it is the only rational and fair way to distinguish between firms with varying levels of revenue.

What burns my butt is that you all spend the entire day comparing yourselves to AMD rather than your true equals, the rest of the nifty 50 like Cisco. And why is that? Intc always coming out looking better statistically against AMD. And so you are reassured that your investment prowess is intact. Its another form of da nile because compared to some of the other nifty 50, intc may not look so good.

RE <<Now a dual standard is perfectly acceptable if AMD only aimed to become a niche provider. But as we all know, thanks to good 'ole Jerry Sanders, AMD's continuing mission is to catch up to or surpass Intel in every aspect (performance, production, marketing, investment return, etc.).>>>

I have yet to hear sanders say that AMD is the next intc. He has said he wants to be a competitor and so does Via....so what. You don't put them in the same league.
