Re: Maybe that's why your own short term options instead of stock.

Sixteen months is a long time to a twenty year old.

Re: In all the years I've watched these companies, AMD has had one success, the Athlon

You mean to tell me AMD isn't successful in flash memory? AMD alone is 16% of flash, compared to ~24% for Intel. The AMD-Fujitsu joint venture holds a combined 29% market share. I have links to several sources on my other computer that show AMD's flash carries a very large premium to Intel flash. I will provide them later if you doubt the extent of the premium. So, we have Athlons and flash as successful, which are 90% of AMD's ventures. Where are Intel's successes out of Intel Capital and cpus? Server farms?-- a real high-margin winner. Graphics? Seen the i720 III lately? I could continue.

I don't know how long you've been following them, but a comparison of their charts from 1970 to certain mid-80s developments, reveals AMD appreciating faster than INTC. There were "some" successes in that period.
