I am out of my INTC today. Since Monday, when I became aware of the June price cuts, I have been thinking that Intel may not be trying to kill off AMD and the response to me seemed to be a realization on Intel's part that AMD is real. I think by going aggressively after pricing they now are setting themselves up for a prolonged period of low ASPs. The time for lower ASPs was a year back when AMD was just starting to show signs of life with the K6 - now the cat is out of the bag. I have concluded that Intel does not know how to respond in a CPU market where they are not the only player (of consequence, I mean).
Intel management should probably take lessons from other folks in semiconductor and other industries where they know very well how to compete with one aggressive competitor.
In any case I do not care anymore now - I am now out of INTC.
