06Q1 "Early Forecast" EPS Contest Update epscontest.com (Some specific contest pages are linked at the end of this message.) We have 4 entries so far. Don't forget, enter now and you have an insurance entry for the next two 06Q1 contests as well. You can replace it with a new entry in the later contests, but you'll have estableshed a placeholder at the least (in case you're out of town, or better, if your original numbers don't need changing...). WEIGHTED CATEGORIES: As suggested by Petz, we are going to de-emphasize the flash category by a weighting factor of 0.5 when scoring entry results. This is because flash has become a significantly smaller role in AMD's business, and for that matter Intel's business as well. In order to keep the scores mathematically comparable to previous contests we are weighting the total revenue category at 1.5 so that all 5 categories continue to add up to 5.00 on average (not counting bonuses). GUIDANCE: I elaborated a bit in AMD's guidance just what the historical numbers we've provided for each category are based upon.
