MarketWatch - More selling on Wednesday for tech. stocks ? Tue Dec 02 17:27:29 1997 NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Disk-drive, chip and networking companies pushed technology stocks lower Tuesday after earnings warnings from Cabletron Systems, Altera and Western Digital. Adding fuel to the fire, influential chip analyst Tom Kurlak of Merrill Lynch said he thinks "the next 12 months for semiconductor stocks will be very rough." The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index shed 6.3 percent of its value, largely on Kurlak's comments. Wednesday may see further losses. After the market closed, networking giant 3Com said it expects only a "slight profit" for its fiscal second quarter. The company was expected to earn 44 cents a share in the quarter, according to a consensus of analysts surveyed by First Call. See Tech Report. The Amex Networking Index fell 4 percent while the High Tech 35 Morgan Stanley Index of major computer-related companies lost 2.9 percent. The Goldman Sachs Computer Hardware Index was worse by 2.1 percent. The CBOE Software Index slipped 1.6 percent. More broadly, the Pacific Stock Exchange Technology Index fell 2.4 percent, while the tech-laden Nasdaq Composite fell 24 to 1606. The Dow Jones Industrial Average managed to rise 6 to 8019, its second consecutive close over the 8,000 level.

S, get your rubbish like that below off the AMD thread To: +Kevin K. Spurway (26354 ) From: +StockMan Tuesday, Dec 2 1997 4:07PM EST Reply # of 26361 Kevin, Re -- it wouldn't surprise me if, were you able to overclock a K5 to 233 mhz, it would perform similarly to a K6 233. I suggest you read up on why AMD and cyrix came up with the PR rating. It was because a 133Mhz 6x86/K5 == PR200 6x86. Now do you get it? Well I can continue on this line of posts, but it would be a waste. Stockman Do you dispute that the the Cyrix 6x86mxPR233 is much faster than an Intel MMX-233 or even a P2-233? Show me a Winbench result that says that, you won't find one. Despite this, the Cyrix chip only runs at 187 MHz. Its clear, S, that you don't understand MP design -- there are more ways to higher performance other than higher clock speeds. Also there are better roads to 300 MHz than juicing up the wattage to the chip like Intel does. (P2-300 = 40 watts, P2-233 = 33 watts, K6-233 = 28 watts) *cache excluded Petz

ALL, look what SMan does when he doesn't understand something, call it nonsense (because he can't understand it): To: +John Petzinger (26361 ) From: +StockMan Tuesday, Dec 2 1997 6:30PM EST Reply # of 26362 Kevin & P, Re -- but that max clock speed (300MHz vs. 233 MHz for K6) comes from higher power dissipation. You two guys are made for each other. Nonsense posts with more nonsense posts. Jeez!! P, Please take your nonsense to email. Stick to posting AMD estimates. Stockman
