I unloaded my April 80's this morning at $1 for a loss. Scumbria, Why did you unload them at a loss? Knowing very little about options, does an April 80 mean you expect AMD to be trading over $80? TIA, ted

Hello Scumbria and Thread, After reading one of Carl Bilow's message on Sunday, I did a little research on "delamination". Interestingly enough, the most helpful information was from ntel's site. I have two questions: 1. If delamination occurs during packaging, is the enclosed die effectively destroyed? Is it possible to salvage the die or is this impractical? 2. If ntel chooses to return to ceramic instead of plastic, what are the implications production wise? How much time is lost? Could this be what the "shortages until June" for *ntel are about? How fast could they get ceramic packages and get back in trouble free production? Kindest regards, CrazyMan
