Re: "So, are you SURE Albert isn't back? Hint, hint...." No, how could anyone be sure? The only thing I am sure of here is Intel will make money and AMD will lose it. Jerry will promise better times are coming and AMDolts will believe it. EP

Re: "So, are you SURE Albert isn't back? Hint, hint...." Hey Albert - if YOU're BACK, do you realize HOW MUCH YOU LOST WHEN you sold your Intel at $60 (UNCORRECTED for THREE 2 for 1 splits) in early 1995 - and BOUGHT AMD at $35 ? In rough round numbers, your Investment has been CUT by 55% !!!! But....if you had HELD INTEL... you would have had a GAIN of about 9,200 PER CENT [(69/60)(22*2)]. Let's see - you GAVE UP a 9,200% INCREASE in Intel for a 55% LOSS in AMD !!!! But.....AMD has MORE POTENTIAL !!! Have a nice day Albert - And..... Congratulations on your Switch out of Intel to AMD in 1995 - you will go down in the Investing Hall of Shame ! Paul
