This is exciting time for Sunw, we have a large team pulling for Sunw. The turn around is exciting and the service revenue projection is exciting. Institution holdings can extend to overbought, and create a similar condition, same as AMD has now. Overbought because of new funding has to be discouraged.

AMD has overbought situation there, no team pulling for them, because Hector Ruiz did not have much to offer. 8 core cpu has problems because AMD still stuck on symmetrical processing and not going realtime. Hypertransport pipelines are the same as hyperthreading offered by Intel for realtime. 8 core can be 256 bit(video processing) cpu or 8 (32 bit) core cpu for realtime threads in massive parallel computations. 9 hypertransport pipelines design is proper for 8 cores. Protected thread memory in L2 cache can be either hardware(cores) or software(soft threads) allocation.

AMD has no suitors, not Intel. Sunw may have IBM or GE as suitors, when Sunw becomes successful?

AMD is off topic here, only used for comparison to Sunw.
