Re: Intel was very honest about changing their goodwill accounting starting this year but when I brought it up few month back I was called a liar, remember?

Even post Enron, most of these guys haven't a clue that accounting is a complex and easily distorted activity. They think of their checking accounts, and can't conceive that accounting for a business is any different - they just see it as a few more numbers to add up.

Thanks for posting the gory details.
