Good boy - puke it out. Might help for some relief. :)

"If you can't beat em - join em"
K.
Microsoft can't. IBM perhaps could - if Xenos is the problem.
K.
Well, i take Microsofts behaviour on this issue as indication they believe to be in a position to forward the bill to IBM.
K.
In this case you are fully excused for seeing lenders and guarantors in the same basket.
K.
Hey, read my lips: I won't disturb further.
Any colour of cheese your moon is made of is fine and dandy with me.
K.
Well, I don't mind you looking at a guarantor as pretty much the same as a lender if this helps...
K.
p.s.: Just for a suggestion, better don't say this in an interview if you ever apply at a bank. )
Many thanks for diligent retrieval of links. I am well aware of all this. However neither guaranteeing loans, nor granting subsidies nor funding equity makes these entities a lender.
K.
Don't give people fish - teach em fishing: Clip and and paste, yanno?
K.
The lenders are a consortium of bankers - not governmental or other public entities. Very easy to find in the filings, they are all named right on top of the loan agreements.
Wrt AMDs prospections: You gotta catch the cat before you can skin it. ;-9
Now go may go on fun spinning fiction. Have fun with it - i won't disturb it any further.
K.
The German state of Saxony and the Federal Government led the group that gave the loans.
Could you kindly point us to this "fact"? Many thanks in advance.
K.
This might help already: Most of what you posted refers a loan agreement. "Germany" is not a party of it.
K.
Under the agreement between Germany and AMD, Germany will take over the property of AMD in Germany. It is up to Germany to decide.
How about a glance or two into SEC-filings?

800,000 processor hours of computing time on Cray supercomputers went into the design of the highly successful Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
Interestingly, Shrek 3 is using 20 million CPU render hours.

Sure. What do these japanese know.... ;9
K.
...JEDEC said it expects DDR3 to be broadly adopted
They would. Wouldn't they? K.
Chris is not the writer of this open letter - he just cites it.
Follow his link - the letter is longer, the author is from Israel.
He also has the panacea for all of AMDs woes: Advertizing.
K.
c/l agreement restrictions are in units. AMD already uses what you say, to the extent the embedded market for X86 allows it. A while ago AMD propagated "X86 everywhere" to leverage it to a greater extent, but it did not work out well. Silverthorne will most probably strangle AMDs abilities to use embedded in this respect.
K.
...the CPU almost becomes the least of anybody’s worries.
It might indeed go there. Just not anytime soon - i'd guess from the time Michael gets a grip on things until public opinion changes it's at least many months - if not years. :)

I did not know Hans ever was with Intel. He was with AMD, though.

I remember it differently. Not in Jerry's times at the helm (he never left the "Real men have fabs" line), and not an an analyst meeting, but in a Ruiz-interview back in the second half of 02. I was stunned back then, being aware it could only be done with Intels blessing or with help from a friendly judge, that's why i have a lively rememberance of it.

Speaking of efficiency, the limbic system is far more efficient than the cerebrum.
Speaking of competence, the concept of emotional intelligence is more and more often used in assessment-centers for good reasons.
Bottom line, a company of excellence would not sell or market senitivity - but buy it in.
K.
Just to say it was a pleasure to read a sensitive comment here.
K.
Ah come on mate, lighten up.
Why treat a casual piece of journalism from India as if it were a translation of the Holy Bible from Hebrew or of the Communist Manifest from German? :)
K.
p.s: Maybe i really should read it carefully again - just to find out what in it is so disturbing for couple of you folks.

I am sure everything you mentioned is considered in the pricing move.
Wrt headlines, sure. I mentioned it rather to add content on the lighter side of things - apparently without much success: It did not exactly lighten up the grim faces around here.
K.
Kate
This headline thing is getting really amusing as well: The title showing up for the link you found changed now, and as well the title for the link i posted earlier:
http://economictimes.indiatimes.com/AMD_forces_Intel_to_drop_chip_prices_by_50/articleshow/2117688.c....
That makes two links with four different titles for one article within 24 hours - up to now.
K.
Well. Stubborn repetitions might help for you, so i don't mind.
However it's amusing only to a limited extent for others.
However, i find this part at least good for a chuckle:
Re: Well, now you are confusing everything and pretending it proves anything.
Doesn't matter. I got my point across,...
K.
Well, now you are confusing everything and pretending it proves anything. Amusing as well.
K.
Oh boy. You better look up what i said (ad personam) instead what i have not said (ad hom(inem)). Schopenhauer would turn in his grave seeing those terms he carefully distincted being used synonymously. But then, maybe he would just take a laugh as good as i had from it. Anyway: Keep me amused.
K.
No premium, you say...?
Naah, that's not what i was saying, i said verbatim "not much premium."
I guess your math might be fine for you. I prefer to consider quad-core products need twice the silicon as well.
K.
p.s: Hats off, you have all ingredients for a classical recipe: A misquotation, a calculation leaving out half the factors of the equation, surrounded by sneering ad personam talk to begin and conclude the posting. Well done! Keep it up! .-)
Thanks for the link with the other headline. Funny. :)
I guess both headlines are bogus. It's just that consumers don't pay much premium for Quadcore - for a reason. Nothing to do with Intel or AMD, imo. Just price to sell.
K.
Sure. Whatever it takes...

A smart dog finds a niche, and does well there.
Undisputedly this is the most common way of answering the question how to achieve quality of life. It is beyond me to judge if it is suitable for most living under this paradigm.
K.
I could not agree more on quality versus quantity. However, there is many ways of answering the question what quality of life is. If you strive to get out the best of your talents, taking it up with a big dog can be useful to achieve this. While it is not a comfortable way to live - it is a life of extraordinary quality.
K.
p.s: Did you know the grapes for the most delicate wines grow on very poor soil?
I don't think they will be around in 3 years.
There is a proverb in german language that goes along the line
"Those presumed moribund live longest".
Just curious, does anything like this exist in your language?
K.
Sure is. However you don't call a special s/h-meeting for a peanuts-issue - which topic 1 obviously is - unless the only intention of the invitation would be to insiunuate something big is in the cards. We'll learn what the rumour-mill is fed with very soon.
K.
You would certainly not bother your shareholders with a special meeting for Topic 1. The meeting is called to "Transact any other business that properly comes before the meeting".
We will learn what is to properly come in the near future.
K.
I'm not sure why he's saying that.
Because Intel will have plenty of these...
Sell what you have and call it strategy
