<Intel's Broadcom investment - $1.15 BILLION (with a B) PROFIT - is more money than AMD has ever made in PROFITS in its 30 year history ! By the way - do you want to hear about some of Intel's other investments ????? [SilkNet, CMGI, Inktomi, Yahoo, Crossroads, etc., etc. ] > I find this aspect of Intel pretty fascinating. Intel should get a nice pop if it decides to do a spin-off or a tracking stock.

Paul, Re:"Intels investments" This has been a stellar area for Intel. CMGI the incubator has stock in public companies worth around $7-8Bn plus a whole lot of private outfits. I would Intels holdings are in same range of valuation. CMGI's stock trades with a market cap of $25bn. Thats roughly a 10% of Intels valuation. Hell, Intel should take this group public and this way they won't even need to use their own cash for these investments. regards, Kash
