I don't understand this at all.. I really like your posts, but how can you say this ? That's insane !! Botched product launches... Horrid financials (look at their balance sheet) ludicrous executive pay (it made CALPERS List last year of systematic underperformers and excessive CEO compensation) The K5.... Hell they had to buy NextGen to get a good chip, they could not do by themselves... really, really bad yield problems (botched .35 to .25 conversion) last quarter's "mask problem", where they should have shined... and finally, have you looked at their stock chart since they have been in existence ? Looks pretty bad, probably worse than a money market.. I really cannot understand how a reasonable person such as yourself, with good analytical posts can come up with AMD executing very well. One more thing. Intel very concerned... good That's why they will stay #1 as they are not resting on their laurels and will stomp AMD into the dust (see above) Just IMO Take care Mr Scum Jean
