Slick - Re: " AMD has done an incredible job of ramping up multiple product lines very quickly, with far less resources than their competitor. " AMD shelled out $800,000,000 for the NexGEN group. AMD borrowed $500,000,000 from DLJ's SUCKER LIST last year. AMD mortgaged MegaFLop 25 for $425,000,000. AMD sold off their Headquarters for $90,000,000 AMD finessed the German Saxony State out of $1,000,000,000 for Dresden/Fab 30. Those sum up to about $2.8 BILLION of resources - hardly a small sum ! Paul PS - I didn't factor in the Motorola Copper process - maybe it's worth a few hundred dollars.
