Elmer,

Re:"All you can see is what's 2 inches from your nose. Where have you been for the last 20 years while this company has gone from a respectable name in the industry to what is usually called the worst run company in America? The processor division continues to be a major money loser. AMD still has major problems integrating large caches on die. The CuMine is late for sure but if you could see beyond your nose you'd realize it will be here in force and already beats Athlon on every meaningful benchmark. It is a better mousetrap and Intel can build them much cheaper than AMD can build the Athlon. Itanium systems have been demonstrated running 16-way and Athlon has never yet been seen in a 2-way. A reliable source told me Willamette hits the Fab next week, or make that this week seeing as it's now Sunday. Athlon will not be competitive with Willamette but you won't see that until it is immediately in front of your face.

All this doesn't guarantee anything. Intel needs to stay paranoid and Athlon will keep them that way, but you have counted your chickens and a next generation or 2 before the first one has hatched. That's silly and your posts are silly because of it. Try and distinguish between your hopes and what is a more realistic appraisal of the situation. If you really believe your own hype then I assume you have loaded up on leaps. I have put my money where my beliefs are. Have you done the same?"

So Elmer, based on your loss prediction of $0.65 are u now "short" AMD.

Hopefully you will be betting your life savings on the incompetence of AMD just like yousef.

Then perhaps the thread will be rid of your "crap".

Do tell us your the price when you went "short".

And to give yourself some backbone you can keep looking at Intels "fudged" prefetch benchmarks on how great Intels coppermine is.

regards,

Kash
