Goutama,

<I didn't post this for WSJ stuff (it's kind of old news for this thread). I posted this to point out to the Intel spokes person comments in the article- He added that Intel was not experiencing any technical difficulties and said the recent earthquake in Taiwan "was not a factor in its shipments for microprocessors." Very interesting. Is the Intel spokesperson trying to cast off above excuses made by Intel Executives yesterday? I think they realized there were some discrepancies between what they told in their CC (as Chuck pointed out in one of his posts about the Taiwan earth quake) and the excuses Intel Execs came up with yesterday :O) >

I read this article in WSJ this morning and gotto tell you Intel's PR machine is fumbling under pressure. In all my years in this industry I have rarely seen a company as good in PR as Intel. The messages are very controlled and always are consistant.

And, now under pressure cracks are starting to show. Score one for AMD for getting another unforced error from the competition.
