Is this so much fun, being a sore winner?

Reasonable question. The winning part isn't much to celebrate anymore. It's a done deal. There are times when I actually feel pity, but what I am enjoying is the befuddlement of those who have embraced a fabrication by AMD management with cult like religious fervor. The conspiracy theories which demand the willing cooperation of IBM, Hewlitt-Packard, Dell, Sun, Toshiba, MicroSoft, Samsung etc to exclude someone who is one of their suppliers anyway. The notion that Intel could force those industry giants to join in illegal practices is easier for cult members to believe than that AMD just simply screwed up. This should be a case study of cult worship and denial that will be studied for years in Psychology classes across the country. Jim Jones step aside.

That part I am enjoying.

Apparently... so much so that as long as they can mock AMD, the majority of Intel shareholders are happy to hold year after year with no financial gains. An amazing bunch of wackos.
