Tenchusatsu, "but can someone remind me why Quack-Quack still has
considerable influence?"

The way I have it figured is that there are millions of folks with a lot of money who rely totally on brokerage houses to manage their money. 'Oh, Kurlak says dump Intel, then dump it.' Not only would they not know a microprocessor from a microscope, but they also don't know how badly Kurplop has been blowing it lately.

I guess I have the hardest time with how this guy apparently is not accountable to his management, which is accountable to ML's clients. How much money has been lost by these grannies or grampies that have been short Intel while watching it go from 80 to 120? Anyone in the high tech field that screwed up big time like this more than once would have, by now, "mutually agreed" with his CEO that he should leave the company.

Tenchusatsu - Re: " Funny how Tommy Kluck-Kluck isn't saying the same thing about AMD when he upgraded them but shafted Intel. "

Good point.

In actuality, AMD's conversion to the K6-3, with a bigger die size, is most likely delayed because of the larger die size - and attendant lower yields.

Re: "but can someone remind me why Quack-Quack still has considerable influence?"

Probably because those that he has influence over know a whole lot less than Kurlak does.
