Yousef,

the majority of AMD's "pain" has been caused by themselves

Nonsense. If it weren't for the rapidly accelerated schedule of Celeron price cuts, AMD would be making lots of money. Their engineering has performed quite well.

yousef--

this is very TRUE. i wish everyone would stop beating up on intel so much. they are being more agressive than usual but they are protecting their business. AMD should have accounted for this and made sure there would be no process problems.

di9dnt hear intel screaming about predatory pricing when AMD was taking marketshare.

what the intel heads like paul and you dont understand is that killing AMD is going to be difficult. this is all going to sort out in a few months and we are going to have 2 primary cpu suppliers...intel and AMD. killing AMD will kill intel as an investment for a few years.

bottom line, puts on intel, long amd. its going to get bloody if intel wants to really fight it out. the difference is, AMD is already dogshit. they have no where to go but up (any positive news will help). intel has no where to go but down.

good luck to all,
trey
