Good one Maxwell, it shows you are creative :-)

Let me correct you though on a couple of points..

<Furthermore, INTC has just posted their worst profit margin ever in the last several years. INTC is laying off 3000 workers and falling farther behind the performance curve in their latest product.>

"Profit Margin". Intel just posted 1.2 $Billion profits. That's PROFITS.
A word most AMD affectionados will have to look up in the dictionary.

3000 layoffs? Not true. Reduction thru attrition though a small number may eventually get layed off it won't be anywhere near 3000 and it will be over 6 months.

As for Celeron, I am not here to defend it so you'll have to find someone else.

Maxwell, <Intel still sell 50% units socket 7 CPU>
Are you sure this is unit amount, not $$ amount?
Intel usually does not report unit amounts.
