Petz,
<No, I did not ask you whether you own or ever owned AMD stock. I don't care, that has nothing to do with whether you can post accurate information. If Intel is paying you, THAT has everything to do with it. Since you refuse to answer, WE WILL ALL ASSUME THAT YOU ARE PAID BY INTEL.>

Since when do you speak for everyone here? This is a newsgroup for AMD investors, not simply AMD employees and apologists. I have answered this question enough times before and I'm not going to waste any more time on it. It won't make any difference to you anyway. Why should you believe me? Why should we believe you when you deny working for AMD? What has any of this got to do with the facts anyway? Do you claim that facts may or may not be facts, depending on who is presenting them? Why not get back to the issues and stop this childish name calling? You have pointed out that Intel's chips have bugs. You are right, they do. I have pointed out AMD's chips have bugs too, they do. Intel has more documented, I agree. So are you happy now? I think AMD investors need to realize that ALL chips have bugs. There is no such thing as a bug free microprocessor. Never has been, probably never will be.

You're not going to solve AMD's problems by getting hysterical about Intel's problems. AMD has to ship working processors and pointing a finger at Intel's bugs isn't going to make AMD's process problems go away.

It's not Intel's bugs that show up as red ink at the end of the AMD's quarter. It's not AMD's bugs that show up as black ink at the end of Intel's quarter.

I would deny that I am also Yousef and Stockman, but I kind of like you thinking that I am. I hope Yousef and Stockman won't mind. They are probably getting a laugh out of this too.

ps I sure will miss Vinod Dham, he did such a fine job on the K6...
