You are not the only one... I have never owned AMD until about a month ago. I bought some shares at around $27 if I remember correctly... I am pleased with the investment so far, but fully expect that this is just the tip of the iceberg heres why: 1. AMD cpus have come to be as fast as Intels. Both by clock speed and by benchmark. People can inflate their egos here on the thread spitting hairs over this for time to come, unless one company clearly pulls ahead of the other. 2. AMD offers the ONLY serious choice in X86 style CPUs over Intel. Cyrix has fallen way behind. 3. Much of the overseas computer market is maturing much like the USA did over the last 20 years. What's different this time is there is a viable choice. 4. The worldwide demand for CPUs is going to remain enormous. This is why Intel is having trouble filing all the orders. So there is ROOM for competition. 5. I like underdogs (in the right circumstances). Intel was an underdog in a VERY similar position not too long ago. I believe AMD's time has come. good luck, cAPSLOCK
