Pgerassi, RE: "They want to have their cake and eat it too. Aren't you implying that Intel is uncompetitive without special ongoing subsidies?"

Let's get real, Intel is about to eat AMD's lunch in the next year or so, maybe about when Sanders retires. AMD's products seem like they could max out. Meanwhile, Intel has recently inherited many world-class designers - and Intel's got a solid lock hold on this expertise. The only real issue to Intel's traditional mpu market, is probably VIA. I honestly don't understand why we talk so much about AMD, when VIA is the real potential issue here.

Regards,
Amy J

I think you meant to say using them makes Intel look *better* than AMD. Get your screaming conspiracy theory right. <ggg>
