As an aside. Did anyone see the CNBC feature showing where companies that provided RIMM devices had a drastic drop in Laptop use. Translates to much lower expenditure and much more return for the buck. No position. Just watching Sylvester eyeing Tweety through the bars.

Dave,

Re.
Beat by 1 cent, not by Intel products, ..


True. But market was probably expecting much worse. There were also some very positive comments at the CC (see Amy J summary on the Intel thread). More importantly,

After all, the stock had declined almost 70% since its peak mid-year 2000. More importantly, INTC sr management Ottolini and Barret seemed to have a firmer grasp of the shortfalls of next couple of quarters - in other words, negative news with some degree of certainly - which differ from the total lack of visibility proclaimed by Cisco's John Chambers.

JMHO,
Ibexx

Not to duplicate IBEXX's post, but a profit is a profit. The analysts obviously looked at more than earnings (e.g., revenue and inventory numbers) and concluded things are better than they anticipated.
