Robert Re-<Personally, I think it's the investment community that is wacko with its obsession with near-term results. I'm old enough to remember when quarterly earnings were hardly even noticed - something you read about the next day in the paper, if then.> I agree with you however the expectations may be too high and the guidance may need some fine tuning. There is too much emphasis on "meeting" or "beating" the estimate and when it does not happen, the stock takes a hit. It is Intels responsibility to communicate better with the investment community so that we look beyond today and next quarter. In that case I agree with Mary. Felix
