>>However there are two concerns when it comes to Intel and its venture capital fund:

1. Intel will grow dependent on these sales to make its quarter.

2. That it in the process of investing, it will lose sight of its core business and allow it to slip.<<

Hi Ted-

The numbers I have seen predict a good quarter after exclusion of the 2.3B
I have opined here before that the two companies are headed in different directions. I believe the Intel's "core business" will look a lot different 5 years from now. AMD's will probably be about the same. I anticipate that both will be very healthy companies.

>> If not, then why are you concerned about what is posted here?<<

I don't think I have to "be concerned" in order to respond to posts on this thread. I could as easily ask you why posters on this thread "are concerned" about Intel making 2.3B more than anticipated in Q2. It seems that you should all be HAPPY about it, since it shows that Intel is a very sick company. <g>

Regards,
Frank
