Elmer, Re: As an investor, why do you follow this thread?

As an Intel investor, I follow this thread to get whatever
information is available about its 'major' competitor.

I have the same feeling as you that AMD supporters here
actually do not have that many financial interest in AMD
(if any at all).

Elmer re:I have been waiting for another entry point. I just don't see it.

This stock will be in single digits as soon as the other shoe drops (AMD has many feet): 25m is having major problems and will not be 100% converted until the end of '98 at the earliest. I expect this announcement to come in the March/April time frame. At that point, it might be a good speculative buy on a possible buyout. As a major Intel investor, I'm hoping AMD does survive and Sanders still remains in charge, for the obvious reasons. Also, I do expect a shareholder lawsuit soon based on all the hype and insider selling that occured in 97. I'm surprised it hasn't happened already.

Although the first 5 million or so digital set-top boxes to
be delivered by Tele-Communications Inc. to cable
subscribers will be based on a scaled-down version of
Microsoft Corp.'s Windows operating system, chances
are slim that Intel Corp., Microsoft's longtime partner in
