<I'll take the named INCT official's word over some anonymous FUD'ster> Yeah, didn't you know the "Otellini never lies" story? Now INTC is almost 50% down from their top, and you still are making this idiotic statement. Which more credible source than the WS tape do you need? It's your money after all, so who cares... BTW, don't you realize that you look like a puppy barking at a limo? Links, claims, liars, bark, bark...

Hi waste of space; Another misguided liar expounds on the Intel shortfall. Maybe you should go harangue Goldman Sachs, Standard & Poors, etal.: ... politicians, like ordinary people, often took refuge in statements that were persuasive rather than bluntly true. A schedule conflict might be a good reason for not meeting with someone. The real reason: a loathing for the other person. That lesson stuck in my head the other day when Intel Corp. (INTC) announced that slow sales in Europe meant earnings would not meet analysts' expectations. ... I don't doubt what Intel said -- that European sales are slowing. But I wonder whether that's the whole story. In short, I wonder whether Europe is the good reason rather than the real one. ... "Obviously, when you're a CEO, you want to put a positive spin on all corporate news," says Mike Englund, the chief market economist for Standard & Poors. "In a quarter when the euro depreciates, you never can really prove or measure to what degree consumers in another country balked at the price. So anyone can claim that the weakness in their statistics is due to the currency. It becomes a scapegoat." ... "Europe was blamed for the shortfall but it was clear that (the) upside didn't emerge in other areas," wrote Goldman Sachs semiconductor equipment analyst Gunnar Miller in a note to investors. sjmercury.com -- Carl
