Joe, just in passing, I have to note that Cnet, in which Intel was formerly an investor, is beginning to see some humor here. Note that yesterday's slippage story,

Intel delays Timna release over component glitch news.cnet.com

links to a story from 11 days ago:


Intel says replacement for faulty chip ready soon news.cnet.com

Oh, well, the headline writer in the old story slipped up, what Intel really said was that the replacement would be ready "real soon now".

Cheers, Dan.

4. The company (Intel) expressed its view that the current semiconductor upcycle could extend further than past cycles, given the explosive growth in Internet and wireless communications.


OH NO INTEL!!! They expect the demand to continue!

There must be something the Fed can do to fix this!

Joe,

Hmm... This doesn't start as a good week for Intel. First we have Boxed Xeons pulled, next we have Timna delayed, then we have leak of Willy prototype running at 800 MHz, not performing very well, now we have reduction in the initial clock speed of Willy, slower migration to .13u process.

And all the analysts spin these news items as being positive for Intel! I wonder if they just can't admit to being wrong, or if they are so over invested in Intel that they just can't admit to being wrong. It will be interesting to watch what happens when, and if, they ever have to admit that they were wrong.
