"Intel's Financial Hit" Intel will hurt badly but even the very worst case scenario that you describe could be absorbed by Intel for a number of years. They have $14 billion in cash and earned almost $12 billion (b/4 taxes) through the first three quarters of the current year. Yes I know a good chunk of that is investment gains, but the point is that if they want to drive AMD into the ground they can. They should run into anti-trust problems if they are willing to operate at breakeven and even the most die hard Intel loyalist doesn't want Intel to go to breakeven point. I think anti-trust laws and Intel's willingness to take a hit are the two considerations; not their ability because they clearly can do it if they want. Hope this makes sense and isn't too "off the wall." Regards, Jeff
