"Intel is one of only three companies in the world who have shown a profit of $100 million per quarter continuously for the last 10 years."

As they say, past performance is no guarantee of future returns...

8% is an extremely generous discount rate for tech company, I'll be kind. So let us calculate how much 400mil/year forever worth:
simple perpetuity is $400/.08 = $5000mil
now lets compare this 5bil to Intel's market cap
If intel's market cap is below $5bil than it is probably under-priced <ggggg>

<edited> you can argue that intel is a growing company but in that case you have to take into acount incentive plans and more realistic risk premium (discount rate). You may even end up with slightly higher number.

Barrett admits: "..you know, not pro forma but..."

Essentially he admits here that the GAAP has a big
disconnection with financial reality of at least
$600M loss in 3Q01... First he was practicing the
invesment paper gains, now he is hiding $1B/Q stock
buybacks, what next? Of course today he is happy to
pull up this cheat, but for how much longer?
