Looks to me like that hasn't done much for Intels bottom line. Perhaps it's better to dance with who brung ya?

--- Of course it hasn't....Yet. Maybe it never will. And dancing ONLY "with who brung ya", means you'll never get a chance to see if there was something better.

Why do you continue to ignore the deteriorating economic scene? Look at Corning today, GLW...fibre optic orders have dropped 25% yet you seem to think Intel will never be effected. Intel has less and less ability to set prices..pricing power...

---I'm not ignoring anything, and I didn't say "Intel will never be affected". Don't put words into my mouth Jim. I do realize that intel can no longer set prices, and does not have the influence in the semiconductor arena it once had.

THAT is exactly the point. The need for intel to diversify is exactly because they can no longer dominate the "One Specific" area that they have been able to dominate in the past. Thanks for giving me more reasons for diversifying.

Hi Jim, RE: "the deteriorating economic scene? Look at Corning today, GLW...fibre optic orders have dropped 25% yet you seem to think Intel will never be effected. Intel has less and less ability to set prices..pricing power..."

Instead of significantly reducing prices like Intel and AMD do with each other, it appears like Cisco trashed its routers to avoid significant price erosion.

Maybe the network business isn't so bad after all.
