Bearke - Re: " As the lady used to say in the Wendy's commercials, "Where's the beef?" Right here - $103 11/16. That's plenty of beef. And you don't have any - but I got PLENTY OF IT ! Re: "Are they having a down year this year? " No - revenues are up ! Earnings are down but INCREASING. Look at reality - in 1996, 40% of the world was not in a recession and Intel didn't have a Kamikaze Kompetitor slashing prices by 25% every 6 weeks. In 1997 and 1998, Intel had to deal with these situations. And now, Intel has turned its business around. By the way - do you know what business Intel is in or what products it makes? Or is this information not relevant to the Bearke Opinions ? Paul

Michael, >>>As a wise man once said, it ain't sales, it's margins. Most cos. can have up sales if they don't make money on the crap they sell.<<< You are in denial. Intel has gross margins upward 53% and net income 1998 close to $6B. Their net income is greater than gross revenues for these cos: Dun & Bradstreet Bank of Boston Wells Fargo Corning Ryder Systems Boise Cascade Bethelhelm Steel Nike Bank of New York Just to name a few.
