Hi Flint I think we are not talking $100,000,000 here, but more like $100,000,000,000. Actually, $200,000,000,000. After all, how much would you want to pay for a company with lousy single digit margins? 1X is basically what AMD gets versus some 9X for Intel. What's the difference if both suck at making money? If Intel keeps on losing money consistently then one may even accuse it of dumping. Aha! No solution scales for ever. Intel has to find a plan that will execute in face of persistent competition, and it will. Of course there are other factors too that govern its stock price. A lousy biz cycle for example.
