Re: "Good point. It has to hurt Intel's bottom line, but I think it is Intel's long term interest as it will slow if not stop AMD's market share growth.

AMD has to continue to take market share or they will never be anything more than marginally profitable. "

AMD has resorted to preditory pricing to grab market share. In case you hadn't noticed, they are losing more money as they sell more K6's. AMD stands little chance of ever again being a profitable company. Intel simply has lower costs and the market for Alien Blaster (tm EPhud '98) software is too limited. I predict AMD will never again post an operating profit unless they drop out of the x86 business.
