Seimens, maybe.

Yeah, Motorola or even IBM could benefit, given the strong ties. I am really surprized that Hector hasn't used his connections to feel them out. I know that Motorola could easily use a cash-cow right now.

Re: "Seimens, maybe"

Siemens already owned 20% of AMD during the 1980s.

They dumped it about 10 years ago.

John (showing my age) -- Siemens at one time owned 20% or 25% of AMD, I think around 1980 when I was just buying my first stock.

Here's another one -- Kodak owned a significant chunk (20%) of Sun Microsystems but sold it for peanuts.

John:

"If AMD doesn't climb to $60 soon, it will be taken out."

Agreed!!! The NVidia, SMP and recent Athlon 4 news will cause a few more number crunchers to sharpen their pencils...Can't help but come to a much greater present value calculation after factoring in the potential of these revelations into the estimated future earnings stream!!!
