Dan, Re: "If Intel accounting were as conservative as AMD's is, Intel would have reported a loss of about $800 million."

Intel announced their Generally Accepted Accounting Principles earnings of over $100 million last quarter. AMD follows the same exact announting requirements; they are no less conservative than AMD.

Don't accuse others of obfuscation when you are by far the most guilty of this here.

Dan, "I replied that they'd better, since their costs are 4 to 5 times those of Intel (actually, 6+)."

By your own reasoning that Intel's cost are 6x AMD's and Intel's revenues are 8x AMD's revenues, is it any wonder that AMD lost $100 million last quarter and most analysis do not predict a return to profitability for another 4 quarters?

I think you better reexamine your investment goals. Maybe you need another horse to ride.
