I wonder how many analysts are going to pick it up. If the key guys on AMD (Niles, Kumar, Peck, Osha) pick it up whisper it to their clients the significance of what happened today we will be in 40s before earnings.

I would hate to think we owe Ashok anything....

I don't know if you saw this from the CNET article:

Two analysts--Ashok Kumar at USBancorp Piper Jaffray and Richard Gardner of Salomon Smith Barney--also warned about a revenue hit because of chip shortages. At the time, however, Gateway predicted that earnings would likely remain unscathed.

Oh well, we can always hope he'll screw up next time. At least our "clown" company seems to be doing ok....<g>
