Re: "Of course Cyrix is competing against Intel, which has used the same CPU core for over four years"

Once again you are wrong. Your claim would require Intel to have released the P6 prior to 3/20/95.

Scumbria,

<They are talking about the Cyrix that led the way to the sub-$1000 PC....>

Yup, that would be the one. What great innovations! In fact, Cyrix's innovations were so great that they had to throw in the white towel and admit financial defeat. Meanwhile, Intel continues to struggle with old stale technologies such as 8X Xeon's and .18 processes. Got to admit, though, Intel's "same CPU core for over four years, and a grand total of two new cores this decade" have been obscenely profitable <ggg>. Excuse me for using the word "profitable" on this thread. I'm afraid I have just sent many AMD/NSM "investors" running for their dictionaries.

Oh....and of course, I really, really love Jerry Sanders. I attribute much of my Intel gains to my good friend Jerry. Jerry is my hero!! I wish all of you disgruntled AMD investors would leave poor Jerry alone and forget all these "frivolous" law suits.

Don't forget the sub-ZERO profits !
