Hey paul, Let's see now??? Last quarter AMD beats estimates made before the quarter started but misses the estimates made during the last week of the quarter by $.04. Made them a dismal failure. While they were being a dismal failure, they took over the sub $1,000 category from Intel. They promptly announced they would not make any money at all this quarter and would probably loose money. That should take care of the whisper #'s and the anaylists that would depth charge a good quarter by inflating estimates. (Hey, I was guilty too. I guessed $.41) So, that brings us to this quarter. It seems that AMD has taken over the Desktop market from Intel. 43% vs 40% Ouch!! So much for not being able to produce and market. Has anybody seen a <366 mhz AMD machine in any stores this quarter. Only in laptops. OOPS!! Looks like AMD is producing and shipping the highest % of desktop chips, selling the most machines, and we are not hearing anything about bad parts or chips nobody wants. I PREDICT $.15 FOR Q1!! Put that in your pipe and smoke it. BT
