It appears to me, given my perspective of three or four years of following the two stocks (and, of course, the underlying companies) AMD and inteL, that the world is now turned upside down and backwards. It used to be that AMD was always ahead of inteL in the future but that when the future came they were lucky to just not be terribly behind. Jerry, much too anxious but entirely sincere in his efforts, would provide inteL what amounted to highly proprietary information by divulging to the press what were, at the time, hopes for performance of future releases. I have it based on some conversations with people who were with the company at the time that many of their R&D people were upset at how Sanders would prematurely tip their hand and give "a gift" to inteL by letting them know what the target was.
