Ted, RE: "Besides its beginning to look like AMD and Intel may be learning to coexist in the marketplace. There may be progress after all." If you look at the history, and the two cultures, it seems unlikely that these two companies could "coexist". (If I read your meaning of coexist correctly, it is similar to how comanies that don't "fix prices" tend to have virtually the same price on equivalent products, the Airlines are just one example). However, a slower, less competitive decrease in prices, while manufacturing cost decline, would certainly be a positive thing for investors in both companies. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe with Intel's new focus on other businesses, they are tolerant of competition. John
