Shane, Well I think that's why a lot of people are hesitant about AMD and Copper.. it's not so much that people are hesitant of copper (there will always be some disagreement as to whether it's worth it.. but that's like anything). No most people's problems with AMD and copper is the AMD portion of the equation. I like AMD's products. I think they provide excellent value from a consumer position and I think AMD is technically strong. AMD's problem is a total lack of selfcontrol. They are always walking to the edge of the cliff holding onto a single piece of thread. They refuse to learn from past mistakes in a timely fashion. One of these days that thread won't hold and that's it. Now I'm not saying this WILL happen.. I'm saying if AMD doesn't change it WILL happen and I hope everyone here can see the difference. Regards, Steve

Shane, Re: I guess AMD just keep doubling their bets. That is a sure win tactic if you have an unlimited supply of fund which AMD seems to be good at. Gary
