Microsoft or Java? I don't care who wins. As I see it, the central point to semiconductor investors is that, whoever wins, Intel is still way behind with their expensive CISC chip, "the PC is it" philosophy. IDTI still has a chance in this market if they play to their strengths - RISC. After all, CE is being designed to run on several processors, many of them RISC. This is one of the things about IDTI I liked in the first place. Unfortunately, they have not received too many orders along these lines. It is still my earnest and ongoing desire that IDTI will find a way to exploit these strengths in the marketplace. I still believe Wintel can morph into WinRisc or SunRisc or WinSunRisc or any old risc you want. Down the road? Hmmm, I think Microsoft is pretty fired up about CE right now. They did get the system into the GIC boxes. Now this: news.com Ok, Corrigan's OPINION notwithstanding, these links should sober up anyone contemplating immanent purchase of semiconductor stocks. techweb.com news.com
