There could conceivably be long-term investors out there.

Maybe some people care about what's going to happen next year and beyond. Some Intel investors have held the stock for years. There's been a lot of speculation about Merced, which won't be released until 1999.

To me the most gratuitous piece of information the company floated was the long term gross margin of 50%. Think about it. They said 2Q's margin would be 60% +/- "a few points". They also projected a 60% margin for 1997, if I remember correctly. Why mention a number that no one was likely to see for at least the next four or maybe even 8 quarters?
