greg, re:"Read the last paragraph Intel market assessment does not make any sense. Perpahps (sic) you can enlighten us." Sure - glad to help out with English. It says: Intel's stock closed on Tuesday at $78.94, up $2.44 on Nasdaq. Which means: Intel's stock last traded at $78.94, up $2.44 on Tuesday. It trades on the Nasdaq exchange. --------- Perhaps it was the next to last paragraph that has you stumped: Despite the booming unit growth shown in the sub-$1,000 personal computer segment, Intel presented data showing that even in the consumer market, a slim majority of sales fall into a price range of $1,200 to $2,500, a segment Intel refers to as ''performance PC.'' Segments above and below that price range roughly split the remaining share, the company said. Which means: - The author thinks sales growth of PC's sold below $1000 are rapidly rising. (Perhaps true, but not said by Intel herein) - Intel says that looking only solely at sales in the consumer market, more than half are priced above $1,200 and below $2,500. - Intel says that of the remaining, a bit less than 25% sell for less than $1,200 and a bit less than 25% sell for over $2,500.
