Intel's investment BCST up 37% today. Amy J redherring.com By Owen Thomas Red Herring Online March 22, 1999 Snap's launch of a broadband service on Monday, featuring audio and video content from a variety of broadcasters, shows that the next rush to make money on the Net may look a lot like the first one. But if Snap aims to hook its users on speedy connections to the Net, it may have to face off with Yahoo (YHOO), the winner of that original land-grab. IT'S A SHOWDOWN Yahoo -- as well as other portal contenders -- aren't likely to sit still while Snap aims to capture more users, however.

Paul, from the YUK Register article, The 300 people out of the 13,800 personnel on its payroll which AMD said it would lay off are not connected with its chip business at all. YUK again. A guy I know (engineering manager) with 25 years or so in the computer systems and CPU chip industry, who was working at AMD's headquarters on Duane Av., Sunnyvale, where they are in the chip business, just got laid off last Friday. The YUK does it again! Tony
