TT,
Re -- Does any one know why these analysts think '99 would be a profitable year for AMD? On what basis?

The analysts have a new and entirely different formula for calculating profitability for AMD. AMD will always be profitable in the following year (the actual amount is left to each analysts discretion).

Also AMD share price is a direct function of the #K6's produced.

John,
RE:"Does any one know why these analysts think '99 would be a profitable year for AMD? On what basis?"

So tell me what kind of yields do you think AMD needs on .25 to gains profitability?

If you can't figure it out, you're lost. <G>
