Yousef - Re: " this WILL BE their last chance!!"

No - Eckhard Pfeiffer will keep giving them another chance - he's a part owner of AMD.

Yousef, This must be your 50th last chance you have given AMD. Thankyou for the generousity of yet another chance.

re -this WILL BE their last chance!!

Oh I thought it was game over for AMD ages ago and we were just playing out the last hand this year! Regardless of the competition, isn't this the time when the vaunted Intel Inside campaign will shine through as consumers turn away in disgust from those "inferior clones" and demand Intel inside their machines - my god, there may even be riots in the streets....after all spending all that money on the campaign MUST have brainwashed some people

or could it just be that.....

Analysts, however, say Intel is reeling from a dramatic slowdown in earnings growth. Despite the ubiquitous "Intel Inside" ad campaign, Hickey says, consumers and businesses increasingly "don't care" whose microprocessors run their PCs.

Just think how much MORE money you could have made the last 2 years with Intel if they didn't spend so much on inflating their ego.
