Re: "They come up with the number. That is how it works. It is like that with all public companies. Does Intel need to be hold to different standards?"

The fact that Intel can fairly accurately forecast their earnings and analysts think they can do a better job says the analysts missed their call, not Intel. Intel made what they told us they were going to make. In the case of AMD, they usually don't give much guidance so the analysts are about all we have to go by. This quarter is different and you seem to be agreeing with AMD. If AMD does break even or post a profit, which seems more and more likely, don't you think it's the analysts who should be called wrong?
