Re: Investment banks typically charge 7% You want to run that by us again? This isn't an IPO, it's a bond offering.

Dave and Dan: It is neither a straight bond offering or equity it is a convert and probably will get close to an equity commission. It is interesting that AMD is doing this now as they must see some light at the end of the tunnel and sense an uptick coming. They also may be on to something with this hyper transport data thing. Actually all o this bodes well for the superior INTC corp. as what is good for the goose is good for the gander and INTC is already prepared with their idle fabs to go into full gear at a moments notice with evidently less cash investment required than in prior years. I think the whole key is the .13 chips and the huge manufacturing leverage and profitability generated thereby. JFD
