Jim, Re: Didn't the same thing happen in Europe about the time the gas crisis hit a few months ago and the truckers struck and blocked the highways... Oil prices are still very high in Europe and they could contribute to lower demand (since people have fewer money in their pockets). But where's the analogy to the election mess? It has no effect on the economy, only on the psychology of the people. And I think you overestimate its effects. Why would someone wait to buy e.g. a new Athlon because Gore contested the election? As I said: This just makes no sense. We should face the reality: US economy is slowing down and it has nothing to do with Gore or Bush. The important question should be: How will AMD do in such an environment? Is there still enough room to grow? What about ASPs? These are the factors that will effect AMD's future stock price in the long run. Andreas
