Kerry - re: "as long as INTC maintains its edge for the next few years and doesn't let AMD establish a cash hoard they'll have a more significant advantage the next time they have a significant product cycle come through. "

That's what Intel is doing.

Have you seen AMD's last 5 quarterly reports?

FOUR losses and a total profit of $1 million in the latest quarter.

Re: "The next 1-2 years should be tough,"

They always are. But Intel just posted an ALL TIME HIGH of $6.7 BILLION in revenue with a "fairly respectable" $1.6 BILLION PROFIT.

How many companies do you know of that earned $1.6 BILLION this past quarter?

And Intel is apparently running at full capacity right now.
