All,

Isn't anyone else worried about the recent revelation that VIA's WinChip5 is Socket A with SSE @ 750 Mhz. This sound like a powerful combination that could hurt AMD in the low end. They'll have the benefits of Socket A, and the compatibility of SSE that Scumbria has been suggesting that AMD needs. If it were coming from the Cyrix guys, I wouldn't be worried, but the Centaur guys seemed like they had their act together a little more.

Comments?

Pravin.

True enough! Even for options holders, a stock split can have benefits. However, I'd be a bit careful about owning a post-split option at an odd strike price (such as 100/3 = 33.33 call). It has to do with liquidity. As time goes toward expiration, the odd strike price calls are not going to be as liquid as the the ones at standard strike prices, IMO.
