Elmer, because they lied to their shareholders claiming "the yield problems are behind us" when a careful analysis proves they knew full well that they still had very serious yield problems at the time they lied and those problems continued for quite some time afterwards. You are referring to Intel aren't you? Scumbria

Whatever it is you're smoking you should drop it while you still have a few braincells left. AMD faced a sea of lawsuits because they lied to their shareholders claiming "the yield problems are behind us" when a careful analysis proves they knew full well that they still had very serious yield problems at the time they lied and those problems continued for quite some time afterwards. EP, Apparently Intel has done the very same thing; it assured customers and shareholders the cumine shortage problem would be over by March.....now it looks like June or July. Now why are Intel shareholders not suing? Because Intel has the advantage of being able to sale sell ANCR shares in order to make its quarters. I'll give Intel pts for having cash and investment reserves but otherwise their current performance is certainly no better than AMD's last year and probably worse since they have more $ to throw at a problem. ted
