So everyone loved post 43221...
The real joke is that even though you wrote it sarcasticly...IT's TRUE...And so it goes...Wall Street jumps at any chance to declare the computer "dead". Also, somewhere down the line, every Analyst
has learned that a price cut means a company is going down the drain. Someone should rewrite that textbook.

Hi Paul,

Your comment sparked a question that I was hoping you'd have the
answer to. How does AMD's current market share of 10% compare to their
best market penetration in the past? I bought my first shares of
Intel during the 486 days and that's pretty much when I started
getting interested in AMD as a potential Intel news item. Are the
current price pressures between the two companies any different
than they were back in the 486 days?

Also, last quarter you had a pretty accurate forecast of the quarterly
report based on Intel's guidance at that time. Once the actual
report came out I was impressed by how close you got. Care to
do it again? I'm specially eager to hear your opinion on percentage
PII revenues as I think an impressive number there would be as
important as meeting the estimates.

Happy Holidays!
Shahen.

Paul,

One of the classic "bashes" by an analyst was last April when Intel reported outstanding results at about 4:05 PM. AT 4:06 PM, Erika Klauer (then with Salomon) was being interviewed live on CNBC and she was downgrading Intel instantaneously - without having had time to EVEN READ INTEL's QUARTERLY REPORT.

As far as fundamentals go, she was right. Wasn't Q1 97 the last quarter with significant growth? The stock price topped about a quarter later, when everyone else realized it.
