Chic, re:< noticed on www.earningswhisper.com that AMD's consensus is $.62 and the whisper is $.65 for Q3. This time they left AMD with room to beat the whisper as opposed to last quarter.> Any body can register to whisper.com and put in their numbers. I believe, last quarter some shorters or Intel supporters must have entered very high estimates just a week before the earning date. They did it just to make it look bad after earnings. See JC's reply to your post. It's a one liner but encapsulates what can happen with the whisper number. Also see this old report on the whisper number - Message 13483526 Goutama
