Scumbria, Re: Tough choice for the educated PC buyer If $500 vs $100 means tough choice for educated PC buyer, there must be something wrong(very) with the $100 part. Gary

Scumbria, as Fred has said so eloquently here many times. You don't compete with a giant on price alone. AMD is still around because Intel needs a reason to keep the justice department on it's toes. If they really wanted to crush this small (barely profitable) company, Intel could simply sacrifice earnings for a couple of years until AMD was out of business. Staring out the window at a competitor, lead and managed as well as Intel, must be a real nightmare for the AMD faithful. Especially with their BILLIONS of dollars in cash. The only enemy Intel has in regards to future growth, prosperity and increasing EPS is Intel itself. There can be little doubt that today Intel is manipulating the strategic management strings amazingly well. And they seem to be in a constant state of learning and re-learning the vital lessons to remain the superpower of semiconductor design, production, and distribution for years to come. As the appliance knows as the computer penetrates more and more homes worldwide. And the Internet continues it's torrid pace of growth. Intel is well on it's way to becoming the most profitable company the world has ever known. Michael
