Steve re <<That was Intel in 1991-92 and you can visit the Intel thread to find out people who would.>> ROFL!!!! I hope you are just kidding. Re <<And, before we hear things are different this time, I should also mention that Jerry Sanders and AMD were also nipping away at them, and that was a profitable and healthy AMD, as I recall.>> There is indeed a night and day difference between then and now. At that time AMD was nothing more than a clone maker. They simply were licensing Intel's design. K6 was AMD's first chip which was not cloned off Intel and that was bought from Nexgen. K7 is the first chip designed by AMD. To say that back then things were the same is foolish. Also Intel's growth from then till now is based on feverish growth of the IT sector. There is no way, humanly possible that that growth can continue at the same compound growth rate for the next 8 years. Intel has a market cap of over $400 Billion. There is currently only 6 Billion people on earth and that is only growing at few percent per year. You can do the math. Mani
