Robert,

Peck expects Intel to sell more chips as consumers scoop up low-priced and free PCs. While chips for these machines carry slimmer profit margins, Intel will benefit because they're cheap to make and in high demand, he said.

This reminds me of a Saturday Night Live Routine. "We sell below cost, but what we lose in margin we make up in volume".

It sounds like the analysts are pumping INTC up for the big dump. The logic is nonsensical.

RE:"''These chips can be very profitable,'' said Peck, who now expects Intel
to earn $2.33 a share in 1999.

I thought the catechism on this thread is that Intel, aka predator, wasn't
earning any money in the low end. Or was that the other microprocessor
company?"...

It's been estimated that $.06 of that $2.33 is from the Celeron.

Jim
