RE <<That's great, but I guess I was thinking in terms of the kind of money Intel, TI, Altera, Xilinx, Analog Devices and a lot of other successful semiconductor companies make. Maybe we can put AMD into a sector with those companies you mentioned.>>>

Tony, Electronic Arts will make almost as much as Altera and Xilinx combined. That's alot of $ in my book?

THQI's ROE YTD is 46, intc's is 31....as a rule of thumb, 18 is good. AMD doesn't have one.

Conclusion: these game companies are gold mines and their stock worth owning.
