You may care about market share in terms of volume but all I care about is profit share. Do you understand the difference???? FF

Those 98 numbers are a little hard to believe. AMD just reported that they sold 3.8 million units for the quarter. That's 300k per week, under a million in three weeks. Estimates are that Intel sold 24 million units for the quarter. That's almost 2 million a week, 6 million in three weeks. Of course, I'm looking at average numbers, so maybe AMD had three great weeks and sold all 3.8 mil. then, and Intel had three bad weeks and sold 3.7 mill

Scumbria - Re: "Here is a reality check for you" here's one for you: Intel $6.7 BILLION REVENUE $1.6 BILLION PRPFITS in Q398 AMD $685 Million Revenue $1 Million Profits The CPU business is far bigger - and far more profitable - than the retail sector where AMD sells its CPUs at a loss. You do know that without FASL income, AMD lost money in the past quarter. Paul
