RE:"Look at the numbers - interest income and such, it is financial engineering at its finest.

Look at the forecasts and look at the comments about "supply" being tight. And look at Gross Margins being 61% for the year (down from 63% now"

They did the same thing last quarter and got away with it.
Now they are closer to Willy. I think after an initial knee jerk reaction...the Intel love fest will continue.

Tight supply is the key here. Again, after after any knee jerk reaction...the rest of tech looks good...any weakness is Intels alone. Good for AMD.

61% vs 63% margin. Every ones other brother on this thread expected a loss of margins because Floppers sweet spot is a lot lower than Athlons. (No kidding). I think Intel did darn good to make 61%. Again, the average Intel investor will say that it's well within the norm.

Then again, we will all find out just how good Intel did vs expectations tomorrow when the real market opens.
