Re: "$6 Billion in profits does not happen without selling lots of parts 100,000,000) "

Most people don't realize that if Intel sold ~100 million processors then they sold ~200 million units out of their chipset division and at a nice profit too I'm sure.

RDM, >>>It will be interesting to look at the results of 1999. Will Intel continue to maintain
the $60 after tax profit per chip?<<<

In the last conference call on January 14 of this year, Intel said they are estimating overall gross margin to improve to about 57% for 1999, vs. 54% for 1998. Revenues will be up sequentially every quarter after 1Q. So, to answer your question, yes, they should. Are you considering buying the stock?
