Hutch - Re: " We are at point 3 now ."

Point 3 = a Penny Per Share.

What's point 4? Two cents per share?

AMD's ASP's are dropping - and their small die sizes are increasing - from 68 to 81 to 117 sq. mm.

Your tacit little formula is not so simple.

AMD has had smaller die sizes than Intel for 20 months.

How has Intel managed $9 BILLION in profit in this time while AMD has managed only a few million?

Do you understand the difference between $1.6 BILLION profit and $1 Million profit?
