"Please note - if another Dot.Com company made this announcement (AOL, Amazon, Exodus), that stock would be good for a $20+/share HIKE in one day!

Intel must be the Rodney Dangerfield of the Internet Set - it doesn't get ANY RESPECT !"

I think it's a difference between "Potential" and "Expectation" that causes this. When some companies, whether a .com or a wannabee chip company does something notable, their stock takes a jump because of the potential that they will succeed and be profitable.

When Intel, and other well run, profitable companies, do something note worthy in a positive light, that is expected, so the stock doesn't react much. It is only really notable to the news and ANAL-ysts when Intel makes a mistake. 'Creates a great opportunity for churn.
