Tejek,

Do you ever read Engels posts over here? You get all hot and bothered over antagonistic responses TO him but you
never, never ever criticize his intial posts that start the problem in the first place.


I'm not going to unravel all the posts to come up with the perfect diplomatic most fair to AMD and Intel and all their backers post. Au Contraire, when I see a phrase like "very depressing" attached to Intel's first half, stated on an AMD thread, I've got to be on it like white on rice. AMD's stock history is so bad that, for example, all the fervid AMD backers from back when SI was just getting started, are gone. Now, here we are with a whole new set of folks touting a rosy future, you included. OTOH, with Intel, I can name you ten strong backers right off the top who've been here on SI since '96 or so. I guess they didn't get too depressed in 1H99, did they?

I guess one could conclude that one of the hardest things to do would be for an Intel backer to see the AMD backer's point of view, and vice versa.

Tony

re: "I would have guessed something more like 5,000:1"

Sounds like one of yoUSEF's guesses to me. He just does not get it. No matter how hard he wishes no one will "maKE it so!" for hiM.

Tejek, The problem we have on this thread is we just don't accord PE the respect that he deserves. Did you know that on the INTC thread there is a movement afoot to give Paul the honor of being the 100,000th poster. Jeez the guy practically walks on water over there.

By the way...rumor has it that they are bouncing off the walls over the ATHLON at inTEL.

Tejerk - Re: "As for AMD's it sucked big time as well. Now how many AMD posters went over to intc in the first half bragging about AMD's stock performance? I would venture to say nada. "

SCUMbria made repeated - and FREQUENT - posts on the Intel thread - prophesizing about the June Miracle.

June Miracle !

Huh !

A $173 Million Loss, Atiq Raza Resigns, Jack Saltich Resigns and the AthFLOP receives its first PHANTIM LAUNCH !
