RE:"They said 22%. I read from the market research press releases that it was 21.7%. AMD likes to round up, too. During today's CC, they never said that they had "over 20%" for this quarter. They said "nearly 20%" for Q4. That means it was probably 19.7-19.9%. AMD lost about 2% MSS".

Market share numbers seem to be very important for bragging rights and analysts ears. If I was AMD I'd be whispering "x-box chips" in a few ears. If they haven't been, it just reiterates just how naive they are...or to put it mildly, DUMB.

That VIA's really on a roll with Samuel, etc.

Although VIA estimates CPU sales will hit around 10 million chips this year, securities firm CLSA Ltd says the company could double that amount, selling nearly 20 million chips. VIA's low cost structure and the potential for sales in China are two reasons the firm is expected to do so well this year.
