Paul, re: Intel REDUCING THEIR COSTS almost as fast as they are cutting prices

1. Intel didn't cut Pentium II prices as much last quarter
2. At 20-25% reduction per quarter, Intel's yield would have to be increasing by 150% a year to stay even. ...NOT

Intel has predicted Q4 revenue will be flat to slightly up as will be profits.

Last 2 quarters, both are flat to slightly down. If Intel risks this happening again, its three strikes, yer out! I see no reason why the market should reward them with a PE higher than 15 for a company which is not growing revenues or sales.

They will probably bury some costs in a writeoff to make themselves appear to still be a growth company.
