Tench, re: "Yet in line 54, long-term investments declined by $4,904M. More evidence of unrealized losses on investments."

Wouldn't a lot of this decline be from the massive (and well-timed) sales of Intel Capital investments during the first half of 2000? Intel does have a relatively modest, unrealized net loss in Intel Capital. This value was listed as approximately $120M depreciation on marketable securities worth $232M as of the 3Q01 earnings release.

I haven't been tracking this specific exchange on Intel's financials or the quarterly reports on Intel Capital. However, I agree with you that a large part of Intel's cash has been invested in new fab capacity. I did do some number gathering on this and may post later if it seems sufficiently interesting.
