>>Do you really think the world will be impressed with Intel's ability to sell stocks and use accounting tricks to make their numbers.<< They should definitely take out all profits Intel makes on it's portfolio. After all, it's a CHIP company, stupid! Then, all revenue from PIII should be disregarded because, after all, it is an aging core which has no future and any revenue from it will not be repeated next quarter. We don't need to discuss any revenue from any chip >700mhz since Intel doesn't even make them. Then, of course, we should eliminate all earnings from the Celeron from consideration since the segment it serves is a lowly one compared to the segment served by the Athlon. Let's see. . . .That leaves us with negative earnings! And we haven't even talked about flash, mobos etc. Congrats! You have just put Intel out of business!
