Yougang - re: "Half Billion Dollars Loss? You Must be kidding!

Good Golly !

Do you expect a LARGER LOSS for the year?

That will be a DISASTER of the HIGHEST ORDER for AMD.

Sanders may even have to start paying for some of the Gasoline expenses in the Chauffeur Driven Limousine that WE SHAREHOLDERS provide for him to tool around Bel Air - where Sanders' friends think he's a high tech hot shot.

Yougang,

<Half Billion Dollars Loss?

You Must be kidding!

Why all of sudden you are so charitable to AMD?>

AMD will be posting a profit for this quarter. They have a large operating loss but Vantis sale will cover that. AMD will have to lose about $200M each for the next two quarters to get to the 1/2 bil number - Possible if they screw up the K7 ramp but not too likely. Nonetheless, a wait and see policy is probably prudent.
