Re: Intel's Q2 balance sheet shows over 9B in cash. Intel may actually increase its cash in Q3 and Q4.
Just because they have $9 Billion left, doesn't mean they didn't spend $7.5 Billion.
At the rate they were going, they'd be borrowing money in a year. With the current price war, they could run out of cash in 9 months.

Don't kid yourself, Intel has bet the farm on this price war - if things don't work out the way they hope, bye-bye farm. |
