Tony,
I agree it does look bad for Intel right now.
They have the cash to catch up, but it may be a while until they can beat an Athlon.

Maybe Andy needs to move on, and get someone hungry that isn't resting on the past.

I do hope Intel got things smoothed over with DELL.
The list of other "bad news from Intel" you are probably familiar with.

Whatever happens in the future, it will be worth watching.

I own Intel stock, but I also think AMD has something that Intel is spending a lot of their time on lately.

AMD ATHLON, THE FASTEST PC PROCESSOR IN THE WORLD

Re: speed of the processor is only only one ingredient for success...

Good point! Just what IS intel going to do with all of those Coppermines streaming from 2 or 3 FABS, and all competing for the same 100K or so rambus RIMMS available per month in Q4?

Performance through the MTH is dreadful according to all reports so where will the Coppermines go? Will it be cufflinks? Tie Tacks? Christmas Tree ornaments?
