> What was the source of information

LKO:

Many of us have live news feeds at work. Chech newalert/prnewswire
at their homepages. That is pretty fast too. But not as fast as
SI though.

1) INTC sold off the next day because they said the next quarter would be FLAT. That's not what SUNW forcasted.

2) INTC reported .98 but they reported over a dollar the year before.

3) SUNW showed a slightly smaller suprise in earnings but they showed SIGNIFICANT revenue and earnings increases over the prior year which INTC failed to produce

I don't think it's fair to expect the same treatment.
