Smooth, The bottom line is stumbling impacts the stock:

Intel missed the cut in 2005, dropping from No. 37 in '04 to No. 55 this year, as it struggled with factory snafus and execution missteps. Those woes were reflected in Intel stock returns, down by 17.2% for the 12 months ended Feb. 28. But its execs have been taking action, reorganizing divisions, and rolling out new chips. Profits rose 33% last year, to $7.5 billion, on 13% higher sales, of $34.2 billion. And first-quarter results should show further improvement.

Am glad they have finally cleaned things up.

There HAS to be a lot of hype around that product as it's MS's future for the next 5-6 years. BTW, it also has some features that are quite interesting and very useful to next gen applications. It could be quite revolutionary.

I think Longhorn will turn out to be a non event. Very few IT shops that I know of are in any way anticipating Longhorn.
