Re: "What's that mean? Intel is using profits from other parts of its business operations to offset losses with X-Box. Unfortunately for AMD, it doesn't have that kind of financial maneuverability"

And AMD used the profits and outright sale of other divisions (and headquarters building) to fund the money losing processor division for years. Would Q4 have been profitable were it not for Flash and Communications divisions contributions? I see that as usual, if AMD does it it's fine but if Intel does it it's cheating.
