Foad , thanks for article . As usual there are two sides represented , the analysts who speak for Intel are no doubt either heavily invested in Intel or have convinced their clients to do so . Those against no doubt include all other chipmakers and many PC companies and their investors . The question is , what does an investigator without any hidden motive conclude from the evidence ?

<REMEMBER THE Pentium Bug? You may dimly recall how, in late 1994, Intel (INTC) released a flawed version of its brand-new Pentium processor -- and abruptly denied any problems, only later to relent and confess its error. Intel's good name, and its quick response to negative criticism, saved the day and helped the company get past all the bad press. > Yes we all remember that, but what AMDites don't want to talk about is that the K6 has a similar bug every bit as bad and AMD has never been held accountable in the same manner Intel was. There are conditions whereby the K6 FPU produces incorrect results. Why haven't we heard demands for a recall? Simple. The K6 isn't considered a serious chip so nobody bothers. EP
