Paul,

From my business experience, Intel would have more fear of AMD/Cyrix if they were selling 1/3 of their current volume, but they were selling at a profit.

You don't build an end-user franchise selling at a loss, it's a dead end strategy. If I were an AMD/Cyrix shareholder, I would suggest that they raise their prices to profitable levels and compete on performance and service and the fact that they are an alternative. They could then build a business (more slowly) based on sound finances. At least if you lose that battle, you have taken the high road. (I don't know if I would own Apple, but you have to respect their current focus on selling profitable, deferentiated product, maybe too late).

The street seems to have caught on, based on AMD/Cyrix current stock prices.
