Re -- Barrons and Chaplinsky... Dont believe everything you read, especially in a rag like barrons. Check out Chaplinksy's record last Q, when he made a similar downgrade in estimates, and was proven wrong when actuals were released. Notice the IDIOT chaplinksy has left himself a way out by saying that if Intel makes the Q, they would have pulled in 3rd Q's revenues Shee..sh what would I do without those clown analysts to amuse me.!!!

There's certainly no doubt Chaplinsky has good contacts at Intel. But the whispering on the Street is that inside Intel, there's concern Chaplinsky's call was uncannily accurate-that perhaps he had taken advantage of his Intel connections to get information others on the Street might not have at their disposal. The talk is that Intel has begun an in-house "witch hunt" to find the leaker, and that the company had been considering pre-announcing its earnings for the quarter, but decided to hold off when Chaplinsky made his recent comments. You didn't need insider information to predict pc sales were declining and that Intel would be below the "flat to slightly down" guidance. If you followed the freely available news, it was readily apparent. My wonder is why some other Intel experts have been so slow to catch on - and how they can continue to justify their very high salaries.
