Paul, Good one. I've heard whisper numbers ranging from $0.85 to $1.05. If the numbers come in high, it means that Intel was not too hurt by the extreme cost cutting, and that they have room to lower prices futher. This would be the worst news and would be bad for AMD long term (AMD would get a short term bump with INTC). If Intel comes in on the low end, the entire tech sector will crash, with AMD crashing more than Intel. AMD's only hope is to come in with a big upside earnings surprise. Anyone have CC info? Pravin.
