Paul, <..that should send a message to you as to what MOST investors think of AMD and Intel.> Yes, most investors think this way, but we all know that MOST of them are doomed to lose - this is the name of the game. You seem to get it eventually that Intel is loosing money at a horrendous rate although they found a way to hide this in books. Feel comfortable with that, if you wish. During the last whole year or more, Intel's earnings (even convulsively fudged) were flat. With low-profit Celery replacing the higher-margin P-II in the marketplace, with other part of PC market eaten by AMD and Cyrix, do you think the future earnings will be, up or down? Good guess, not up at most! However, you still need to compensate exempt staff with stock options, so the cash account will continue to drain at the same rate, $3B per quarter. See the picture? Are you familiar with an avalanche effect in public opinion (and corresponding stock price)? I am afraid your woodworking skills will not provide your family for living. See you soon at a highway intersection...
