What is noney?
If that is representative of your writing skills, perhaps you should better take remedial english first.
Most of that dissipation is due to Intel's criminal acts. If those would have been timely stopped by the FTC and others, Intel's market share would have dropped to 50-60% during the P4 years. And there would not have been any profits to cover Itanium's stink (losses). It would have been dropped as yet another bad idea.
And you denigrate AMD's designers who did what Intel claimed couldn't be done, add 64 bit capabilities to x86. Their process people run a "World Class Fab" according to the industry. Their managers have done what no others could, compete with Intel, even with all those criminal acts.
Have they made mistakes? Sure they have. Buying ATI too soon was one of them. If they would have waited a few months, they could have picked it up for less than half of what they paid. But so has Intel. You forget those dumb things Intel did like try to make consumer display chips, sell web site services, the RAMBUS fiasco and many others. They destroyed far more money than AMD ever did in those failed ventures.
The claim of world's most successful semiconductor company forgets those businesses that make money off the stuff those semiconductors go into. By that definition, IBM is more successful than Intel. Their Power series of semiconductors made them over $10 billion in 2007 alone. Their market cap is bigger than Intel as well, $106 to $73 (billion).
As far as Barcelona is concerned, its still stomping all over Xeon in 4P. Shanghai just hits harder and wider.
