I know, what was strange to me was that AMD supporters started whining about him also. Sanders can be abrasive, but part of his job is to communicate with the tech and investment community.


Mani;

Yesterday I expressed concern re Sanders going off on Intel...I don't consider that whining. I agree that its Sanders job to communicate AMD's roadmap and vision but I don't think its necessary to trash the competition in the process. Now I understand I am making a judgment call and you may not like it but I have that right.

Now from the very beginning of my investment in AMD, I have respected and defended Sanders....he is an unusually strong personality with a vision.....and the ability and patience to implement that vision. He also has a large ego that at times leads him into p*ssing contests....stuff, in my opinion, that he should be above not only because of his position but because of his unusual talents.....the abrasiveness demeans those talents and can hurt the image of the company which, in turn, can hurt share value.

Therefore I feel my concerns have some legitimacy.
