RE:"In this post Clinton era have we come to accept lying as normal behavior? When a CEO and Chairman of the Board of a major American Corporation stands in front of shareholders and simply lies to their faces, is this acceptable? You are asking me to justify my outrage and I think this says far more about you than it does about me." No need to insult, Elmer. The thing is that many CEOs etc. are lying...and on top of that and worse, stealing from shareholders. So why don't we hear to ranting about Enron? And as share prices fall, we will hear more screaming as shareholders start to ask the tough questions. Seems to me that Jerry's lies as you call them are more wishful thinking...than intentional lies. He knows what it takes to go against Intel, it's just that he can't deliver. Remember when Hector said 5 new chips by Feb 2001? I guess he's a liar too. Then there is Otellini, who said that the fact that people would accept a free computer was proof they accepted Intels CPU registration number ID thing. Didn't Intel say Rambus was the wave of the future? Didn't Yousef say the K-6 wouldn't make it over 300 Mhz and the Athlon over 400? They are all full of bull, at least you have the where-with-all to do primary sewage treatment on the bull.
