Comment (1): In one of your posts you claim to have been a lurker for some time...If so, you demonstrate little comprehension or you would not choose to take a comment "out of the context of this thread" and put your own little spin on it...unless of course you've fallen under the spell of some of the gullabees on this thread who share this common characteristic! What, did I strike a sore spot with you? Sorry. From now on, I'll just check with you first to make sure that you approve of what I'm going to say before I say it. Thanks for letting me know the "rules" here. ;) Comment (2): Companies operate by objectives. There is no company within the technological sector or without for that matter who meet all their objectives... Of course. Just don't forget you said that the next time you criticize intel's "objectives" AMD's #1 objective is to ship 10 million "spry Athys" in Y2000...All other objectives are secondary to this goal including your example of slippage of on die cache. It sounds like your saying that if a goal is not a #1 objective, then it doesn't matter. I'm sure you didn't mean to suggest that, since a company that had that attitude is destined to fail. Wooops, probably made ya mad with that one too. Take a deep breath, you'll feel better. ;) Comment (3): Any half wit who has been lurking would understand that the context of the statement about AMD's success in meeting goals within the microprocessor arena is relative to Intel's success in this arena and any half wit would understand that AMD's success rate in meeting semiconductor goals over the past little while has far surpassed Intel's success rate... Point taken....insults ignored. I would think that in addition to a company measuring their success against their competitors, they would measure success against their own goals. Oh that's right, according to you, only 1 goal is primary, all the others are secondary. Never mind. Comment (4): Semi-conning, either you are a half wit or you are Paul in disguise...maybe both given Paul's recent posting achievements! The handle is SemiConEng.... And if you think about it, it would cost double to have 2 posting accounts on SI. The mear suggestion or idea of that, would show what an idiot the suggester was.... Oooopps..... Never mind.
