Ten,

Doing the math here, AMD needed to sell those extra one million chips at an average of $128 a pop if they wanted to break even last quarter. Now in Q2, AMD doesn't expect their ASP to rise all that much from $78, and they don't expect to make up to 5.5 million CPUs. That sounds like another loss for this quarter right there.

Isn't profit the difference between revenues and costs? You didn't include any consideration of costs in your analysis. By all accounts, yields are up.
