ENgel,
RE:"

When AMD starts making money again.

And they have never been able to make much money for any
sustained period of time.

My guess - Q499 - if the PC business BOOMS - AMD should pick
up enough business to eke out a meaningless profit."...

----Yes, it seems a fair analysis. AMD starts to catch up, Intel raises the bar, AMD pushes process limits, screws up and then falls behind again. Then the cycle starts all over again.
I think there is a possibility AMD will eek out a profit in Q2, however.
