Herb,
RE:"Then again, throughout this past quarter AMDers were continually claiming that a great quarter was in store for AMD and a dismal one for Intel."

I think we have enough Engles here already.
Foolhardy to paint all AMD stockholders with the same brush.

RE:"AMD stock price was headed skyward. You were guilty on that score too, weren’t you?"

I don't know about skyward. Better talk to NG about that one.

RE:"Especially after June was over and no AMD change in guidance. You guys thought you were home free. Well lightning struck just one week before Q2 Earnings"...

You guys? I admit I did feel a bit better when June passed with no warning. Still nervous though.

RE:"Announcement Day and Jerry lowered the boom. The stock price dropped a ton but you guys fell in line as is the AMD way and focused on Intel negatives ignoring your own losses claiming Intel stuffed the channel,etc."

I never said anything about stuffing the channel. When AMD warned I got a sinking feeling about Intel. I doubt too many serious investors wished for Intel to have bad earnings.

RE:"All the while you knew that Jerry knowing full well that April and May as you would put it was in the toilet was lining his own pockets. I don’t understand how you can be so forgiving. But it’s your money."

I'm not so forgiving. As a matter of fact I've been one of the major AMD critics over the last 9 months.
Had AMD excecuted as planned there wouldn't have been this lag. Now it will take another Q for improved earnings at least. Despite the Y2K bust, AMd could have done a lot better without the delays.

RE:"Jim, how do you stand on the winners and losers poll? Seems like you have been a loser for a long time. Huh?"

I've lost about 40% of my Intel investment. Much less worse on AMD despite the recent drop.
My largest holdings are oil related. I suspect I've done a lot better than you over the last 10 months....especially if you have been in losers like Intel.

Jim
