Pwetender - Re: "a company that got most of it's income from the investment in MU last quarter." You really are clueless ! Intel realized NO GAIN on its Micron Investment. Intel FIRST has to EXERCISE the WARRANTS for Micron stock that it purchased . It would then have to SELL those Micron shares . Intel has done NEITHER ! And besides - Intel's "paper profit" in Micron is only about $661,000,000 (that's the PROFIT - after return of principal) as of today. That would only account for 31% of last quarter's profit. Actually, if Intel ADDED it to last quarter's PROFIT of $2.1 Billion, the Micron profit would only have accounted for 24% of the total. Paul
