Gene - Re: "Your positive spin on low-ball pricing has always been that it hurt's AMD. Anything that hurt's AMD is positive to you, regardless of what it means to Intel."

And I have been dead-right on.

AMD made 9 cents/share in Q1 97

AMD made 7 cents/share in Q297 as Intel cut prices.

AMD lost 22 cents/share in Q3 97 as Intel further cut prices

AMD lost 9 cents/share in Q497 as Intel further cut prices

AMD lost 39 cents/share in Q198 as Intel continued to cut prices.

AMD lost 45 cents/share in Q298 as Intel further cut prices

As AMD loses more money, they are forced to abandon their own R & D and go "barter" for help - witness the Motorola deal.

Intel and AMD are locked in a battle - Intel has shown the ability to remain profitable, reduce costs, improve performance, introduce new technology, develop new products and product lines, and compete in such a way that their competition is financially damaged.
