Paul, I am not at all upset, however you seem to be. You get what you pay for....is that your tack? Turn a vice into a virtue is the epitome of propagandist marketing, are you sure there is no s at the end of your name?

The few who wish to pay dearly for the P-III/RDRAM bus combo will not suffice to offset the inroads made by AMD and Cyrix on Intel profits. They do not need to make profits themselves, they are in essance in the dust, but they have forced Intel into that same low profit dust for a large segmen of production.

Amen brother Paul! What these bozos don't understandis that AMD can't make a profit because they can't execute- from R&D to fab they are unable to realize the margins necessary at their meager levels of production. Just when they begin to get to the break even point INTC drops the price of the old and brings in the new at a higher price and AMD can't keep up.

Keep up the great posts.

Paul -

Re: "Good things generally cost more than not-so-good things.
And better things cost more than good things."

Have you ever looked at buying waterfront property? I've seen it cost more than double what the equivalent building would cost just a few blocks away.

There will always be someone willing to pay top dollar for the best. Intel knows this and is building products to satisfy that demand.
