Elmer, it is truly amusing how a supposedly reasonable
person could write such a nonsense in almost every
line!
<Ali, You haven't answered the question>
How can I answer the question if I have no idea about
actual accounting? I just reasonably suggested
that the accounting must be the same since all
we are living under the SEC...
<As far as I can tell AMD employees aren't getting
much of anything, otherwise you would see the same
accounting tricks you are accusing Intel of.>
Again how stupid. I am not accusing Intel of
anything _illegal_. I just barely point out
that closing your own eyes won't make it dark
for everyone... Since the rules are there,
everyone is reporting in accord to the rules.
However, the scale of compensation at Intel and
AMD are incommensurably different, so is the
corresponding deception of investors.
<More confirmation of the rumors running rampant
through the Valley that people are jumping ship
at AMD at an alarming rate.>
First, where is your confirmation? Second you seem
to be missing the fact that the K6 design has been
largely completed and completely debugged, so people
have to be reassigned, eventually.
<find a way to fill the holes on the K7 team?>
Making up lies again, Elmer? What holes? The
K7 design is completed as well, as per communications
on the "secret thread".
<Communications maybe?> You must be totally ignorant
in the field. You must know that the communication
area is so-called mixed domain, where very specific
analog and digital skills are required. The people
from communication are essentially useless for CPU
designs or require retraining.
<Jerry can keep up his pathological battle against the evil empire.>
Stupid assertion again. This is not pathological, it
is just a matter of survival, that simple. So
you want a company with superior manufacturing
technology (0.25um 5-layers, local interconnect, flip-chip
economical packaging, FAB with 30M+/year chip capacity),
with in-house highly modular design technology,
with full in-house knowledge of all the intricacies
of x86 undocumented "features", you want them just
walk away, give all this presumably lucrative business
up? Very stupid idea indeed on your part.
<AMD will now attempt to buy what they don't have
the resources to develop.>
Wrong again, Elmer. Old way of thinking. You do
not cook cakes in America yourself, you just buy
them!
<AMD used to be a top player in this field but
not anymore. Why do you suppose that is?>
I don't know. Missing inflection point maybe?
Just like at Intel with the sub-$1000 PCs...

See, Elmer, you better think more before repeating
Plaintiff Engel nonsense. |
