Tom Pabst is a hobbiest with an interest in playing with switch settings on motherboards and running publicly available benchmarking utilities, duh. Based on what I have seen from you thus far, it's not surprising that you have based an investment decision on some inconclusive, uncontrolled and meaningless comparisons from somebody's basement. I have a suggestion before you lose it all: first of all, take your head out of the sand and re-read the most recent article, posted here by AMD faithful, until comprehension is acheived. Next, note that AMD investors were quoting the so-called results from that same hobbiest regarding the K6 and Pentium II which turned out to be utter nonsense. Finally and most importantly, realize that you are offering third-hand information from the same hobbiest regarding a so-called comparison between non-production vaporware and Intel's soon-to-be-replaced, first-generation PII chip. That's asinine, pure and simple.
AMD still lags Intel's performance by two speed grades, and the K6's FP and MMX performance are lackluster, but it is better positioned than ever before. mdronline.com;
Financially speaking, you are a danger to yourself and others by refusing to face reality and look at the facts objectively. Rather than spinning yarns let's look at current history. Here we are seeing the same B.S. being spread about the AMD, the Next Generation which has about as much credibility as the TV show of a similar name. Granted, things are different this time around insofar as the CEO is screaming in your face that THERE WILL BE NO PROFITS FOR THE FORSEEABLE FUTURE. |
