Herb - RE: "Intel's gross margins were 59% in Q1 and Q2 and will be in excess of 60% the remainder of the year. If Intel were guilty of predatory pricing that would reflect in their gorss margins which it does not."

No one has said Intel is guilty of predatory pricing across the board.

This predatory debate seems futile unless a clear defination of predatory is stated. It is clear almost everyone has a different interpretation of the word.

Will, <..in fact I worry. Then again it was you that brought this charade about predatory pricing.>

You worry so much that it constipates all your
abilitities, to read in particular. You wrote:

"What has not been established so far is why so many of the
AMD Zealots on this board are so fond of losing money!"

and got into your face:
"Frankly that isn't any of your business. And I am not
sure why you would care in the first place."

This reply has nothing to do with alleged predatory
pricing, and don't try to squirm and change subjects.

Once again: my money is not your business. Is it
clear now?

I recommend that that you read the Businessweek article that first brought up the issue of predatory pricing. It was in an issue sometime in the last 3 or 4 weeks. They briefly discuss how overall operating costs can be manipulated to cover predatory pricing.

<<"Frankly that isn't any of your business. And I am not sure why you would care in the first place.">>
<<Well, thanks for the admission but I do care in fact I worry.>>

I appreciate the sentiment but quite a while ago my parents told me if I make it, I can invest it. They seem okay with that decision so I encourage you not to worry.

<< Then again it was you that brought this charade about predatory pricing.>>

Wrong again. One more time...... Businessweek brought the issue up in an article approximately 3 or 4 weeks ago. (I think Businessweek was worried that intc may get into trouble again with the Dept of Justice.) BTW don't you intc longs read anything besides the intc newsletter.
