Wasn't it Kumar who said AMD was getting a 1% yield on the K6-2-400? His nickname, Asshok, is not without merit. Jim

OT John, good man! It's absolutely insane that these people who call themselves journalists can't do research on their subject. That piece reads like some assignment editor said "uh...let's do a piece on Ashok Kumar and the angle we're going for is..." Instead of something like "Okay, what's actually the truth? There's this sell-side guy out there named Ashok Kumar. There's buzz about the guy. How much is truth and how much is a self-perpetuating myth that we as journalists in the online age have assisted in creating?" It drives me nuts! Brill's Content should do a piece on the guy. If I wasn't using my real name here, I'd pitch the story to them as a free-lance idea, convince them its worthwhile, do the legwork and write the damn thing myself <g> Good trading, Tom
