<at any rate I don't share the view that $1.57 Billion is in any way disappointing> Who are you for us to listen to your view? Wall Street apparently sees this situation in other way, as definitely disappionting. Their disappointment is a FACT, and you look pretty silly when trying to oppose your WRONG OPINION against proven FACT.> Ali, I'll take $1.57 Billion worth of disappointment any day. That "disappointment" can build fabs, pay for aquisitions, fund research etc. What does -$31 million buy you? How much R&D can you fund with it? Can you pay off your mounting debt with it? Can you expand your manufacturing capacity with it? Your failure to look beyond the newspaper headlines explains why you still support this stock. AMD could have a future, but not with the current management and the current business plan. EP
