Good Morning Harry,

Thaks for the good earnings site: bookmarked.

In regards to your discussion on Intel valuation, a few things I think the street is recognizing:

*Y/Y earning growth has been improving.
*It appears that Intel is moving from mostly a PC semi company to a PC/Server semi company, which may impact net margins (higher revenue per sale probably with less SG&A).
*Intel Capital has given Intel the ability to "manage earnings", similar to what MSFT has had in the past with deferred revenue. Less risk.
*The new divisions are in hot high growth markets, when they turn profitable they should accelerate the earnings growth of the company.

The PE on the S&P 500 is about 29, give or take a point. Are Intel's prospects for earnings growth almost twice as good as the average S&P company? I think so. Existing companies in the new businesses get higher PE's from investors.

I hope we get more "color" (as the analysts like to say) on the new businesses on Tuesday.

John
