To: Paul - I have been an enthusiastic follower of this thread, and have greatly appreciated the informative posts you contribute. I have owned Intel for several years, and continue to own it because I believe it is one of the best long term investments anyone can have. But I am not a computer engineer, and I have some nagging questions in my mind about the nature of Intel's chip technology - essentially, how proprietary is it really? Is or will Intel be able to produce technology that AMD, Cyrix and others will not be able to clone or copy? My impression now is that the main thing holding back AMD is their inability to manufacture quality chips in quantity. Otherwise, their technolgoy is competitive with Intel. Is this true? I believe Intel is striving hard to technology-distance themselves from the field, and thereby put an AMD at both a technology and manufacturing disadvantage. But I don't know if Intel will be able to pull this off? AMD seems to be able to shadow Intel pretty closely, and I am afraid they will continue to be able to do this. Thanks for any thoughts you have about this.
