<I think your heavy criticism of AMD is completely unfounded. >

It was founded on some very cold logic that a lot of people on this thread seems to have agreed with since.

<No company has perfect execution and companies need to be judged according to their competition not arbitrary expectations. >

True. AMD's competition has wide availability of PC133 since Q4 99. AMD doesn't. If that sounds that vaccum to you then so be it.

Companies seeking to grow market share need to be very aggressive to make that happen - the track record needs to be near perfect. Keeping up with the Jones's is OK when one is not seeking for relative market share gain.

<It is easy to be tough judge and criticize everything, ...>

Clearly, anyone who says I am criticizing everything that AMD is doing is not reading my posts.

<..but it is much harder to fair.>

"Fair" is extremely subjective. An eye for eye might be fair to someone and it might seem totally primitive to someone else. What sounds "fair" to you in this context seems like being a "blind bull" to me.

"Intel is god and can do no wrong" is the attitude that that made Paul and his band of Intel longs look so incredibly ridiculous.

And finally, I see an over dose of reality check as a nice counter to the overabundant bullishness.
