Paul, Which company is about to lose $1 billion in this quarter from the profit it would have made with no price cust? Intel is who. What a maroon. Sure AMD makes losses, Intel does that. AMD will not go away and Intel can pee down a hole until they go broke and AMD will not go away. The top tier people will support AMD NO MATTER WHAT, because they like the way prices fall when AMD is around and Intel would have them by the gonads if there was no intel Get a brain and use it Bill

Hi Paul Engel; A little while ago, I mentioned that your posts were seeming more reasonable. Now, I find you frothing again. Messages with large numbers of capitalized words. Repeating of things already said. Use of repeated punctuation. I know that this is hard for you to control, but I believe that it is possible for you to do this. Also, you have mentioned the AMD and Intel results from 3Q again. You keep repeating this over and over. We all know the results. You don't need to repeat it. Most of us have very good memories for recent events, probably better than your own. What's worse, you are repeating these facts in pretty much the same way. This is stereotypical behavior of people as they age. Everybody knows this about old people. They tend to repeat themselves, over and over. I don't have an explanation for this behavior. One reason would be that old people tend to lose their short term memory. Maybe you don't remember typing those numbers into your computer over and over. What amazes me is that you aren't even varying how you write it by very much. This is classic senility. But at the same time, you also still have periods of rationality. This is also something that is frequently observed in people as they age. One of the things I've noticed about some old people is that their mood changes more, in the course of the day, than when they were younger. You might try and get your blood sugar measured during several different times of the day. It might be, for instance, that you are having physical problems instead of mental ones. -- Carl
