Can anyone recommend a good, but reasonably priced, web hosting service. I got signed up with PrimeMaster a few days ago and have had nothing but problems.

Thanks,
Pravin.
PS: My guess is that AMD only sells 3.3 million Athlon core processors in Q3, but that they still beat EPS estimates. Q4 looks great, though. The check's in the mail!

Jim,

Thanks for your response. As to Jerry's character structure, re:
<<As far as Jerry being a psychopath. NOT the new Jerry, after AMD had been sued. He is very careful and conservative now.>>

my experience with character structure gives me some reason for worry. While the legal department may be reigning Jerry in, (which is a good thing), the problem with such people is that they are often impervious to learning from their experience. They simply often repeat their mistakes, often to the astonishment of others, since they are intelligent individuals who one would think would benefit from their mistakes. Pres. Clinton is a textbook example of a person with character problems - his intelligence makes one think he wouldn't make such obvious mistakes repeatedly from Gennifer Flowers to Monica Lewinsky, but this discounts the fact that character is often destiny, and that one's characterological 'flaws' help one to rationalize problematic behavior repeatedly. (This is not a partisan political statement - the same characterological analysis could be applied to Nixon - remember when we kept getting the "New" Nixon, and then the "New New" Nixon). But I'm too far afield here, and didn't mean to go into 'didactic mode'. My point is that I think J. Sanders is likely such a person, and therefore not someone I would easily trust, which makes me uneasy about believing his statements.
