Re: so you expect intel literally say "price war" ? your posts/lack of comprehension are getting tiresome.

So when Intel makes a comment about NGA product pricing, which may only account for 10% or so of Intel's shipping products from now to the rest of the year, you automatically assume the comment applies to the other 90% of Intel's shipping products as well? And you think I have reading comprehension problems?

I looked at his reply to you -- a no-no, I know.

So his FUD is that this is only about NGA pricing. Clearly the exec's comments apply to Intel's current situation. What does Intel do to slow AMD's growth? Either engage in a price war, or bring out new parts with better performance. The very fact that he set it up as a CHOICE, tells you it is not about NGA pricing, for NGA parts *are* the second option, meaning the choice doesn't exist if price cuts are referring to NGA parts.

The straightforward interpretation is the correct one: Either we cut prices (now), or we don't, and instead get competitive on performance (which we are doing).
