Tim, re: "This is not an Apple thread, so I won't go into details about why I like the prospects. In a nutshell, they seem to be firing on all cylinders. I can say more if there's interest."

Personally, I'd love to see more about Apple discussed on this thread. I was a Mac user in 1985 until around 1988 when Apple started their long downtrend, but came back in 1998 and have since bought an iMac, a G4 PowerMac, a G4 cube and a G4 Powerbook. I've kept the latter two. I don't use Wintel PCs anymore, ever, for any reason...and not because I don't think Intel makes a great processor, but the OS's that run on PC's quite simply .... for lack of a better term...suck.

And just to start things off with a rather controversial subject...I'll take a 500MHz G4 Mac any day over a 1.x GHz Wintel machine. It just gets the job done faster with far less effort. And by the way, Mac OS X is wonderful. I'll go out on a limb and predict that Apple will double their market share in less than 12 months, making them the single largest producer of personal computers (in terms of market share).

Full disclosure...I currently own a significant position in Apple, and Microsoft (hey I'm not a complete idiot), and a token amount of Intel stock. I don't own and would never buy any AMD stock (well, as long as Jerry is in charge anyway).
