Paul, Re: "(Maxwell), For someone who claims to be technical, you sure play fast and loose with "the facts" - and leads us all to believe that you are not in possession of many of them in the first place." He might claim to be technical, but Maxwell doesn't know his electron from a "hole". <ggg> I kinda like the "old" Maxwell: Message 3160126 "Strategy to Get AMD Profitable Again: I have one suggestion to the CEO of AMD. FIRE all the management of FAB25. They sucked big time. They still haven't solved their yield problem. Incompetency and losing money are not a ways to gain 30% of the world CPU market share." And occasionally even Jack D. had some good points: Message 2109074 "Projections are that k6 sales will be roughly 2M in the 4th qtr. or roughly double the 3rd qtr. sales of slightly over 1M. Assuming that the "higher expenses" in this quarter resulted in a "small loss" then the assumption is that doubling the k6 sales will mean a nice profit. If we hear this crapola after the next quarter, though, then it's time to sell Jerry's limo and get him a used Yugo!" Make It So, Yousef

Dr. Engel: Sorry to write such a bad post on Intel. I knew you were going to be upset and get me on a few loose facts. I never claimed to be the technical one on this thread. It is you who makes that statement. All the people on this thread know that your posts are the ones that contain all the facts. My posts are just opinions and analysis. My point to Elmer is that shareholders have never been a priority when it comes to management decisions, which has been well documented. Elmer thinks that INTC management is fabulous and AMD sucks. I agree with him/her on the AMD but disagree with him on INTC. INTC is just as bad. If shareholders are their #1 priority then all the executives shouldn't be given million of shares of options.
