Tony - Re: "The way I look at it is that AMD plays under different rules from those companies that have to make it on their own. They are kind of like a college sports team that is supported by their alumni. This thread is full of AMD alumni."

Sort of like your typical non-profit charity.

In fact, Jerry Sanders high life and benefits remind me of that guy who ran United Way a few years back !!!

Re: "This thread is full of AMD alumni."

If so, what does that make you? If the 49ers take on Cornell in a football game, what kind of a 49er fan even cares? Only a real fruitcake, IMHO.

So either the teams are more evenly matched than you care to admit (in which case AMD is a legitimate investment for someone who's willing to accept some volatility), or the Intel longs who devote so much time and effort to AMD bashing are all fruitcakes.

My money is on the former conclusion, and the stealth FLOPPERMINE launch would seem to reflect that that is indeed the case.
