AMD has to make $1/shr in Q4 (according to AMD's filing with the SEC) or their creditors will auction off AMD. Their stock price will then be ZERO (0).

nokomis, Ramping from 1.55M units in Q1/98 to 2.67M in Q2/98, it is very obvious that AMD is taking market share away from Intel. The question is. Is it worthy doing so, losing more (record) money? Meanwhile, Intel reported a $1.2B profit in Q2/98. The gross margin on paper is 49%, but before the one-time charge, it is over 50%. Since AMD is still a profit organization, this charity work for the consumers really does not make much sense. Good Investing (I mean minimizing your loss), Time Traveler
